There must be a better system for that bit but I don't know what. It's always a shit show, with peds and vehicles.

It's possible that drivers are rat running, but there are a lot of restaurants in that area and Exeter St/ Tavistock St is one of the few ways to enter the South part of Covent Garden for deliveries.
Obviously that doesn't excuse shit driving.
Until there is a system for co-ordinating all the commercial, daily deliveries to that area it will always be shit for pedestrians and cyclists during the morning rush period.

Often, on Q1 opposite Royal Opera, there are a number of commercial vehicles rat running. If you are going south they pull out of the side street to the left just before the filter bit. Today, with the view completely blocked by a parked lorry, a maniac just drove at full speed without looking. I saw a flash of colour to my left and braked but he nearly killed the guy behind me. Called him a cunt and so forth, but he just blankly stared ahead
