• Some militant pedestrian called me a wanker because he was 2 paces away from stepping on to a zebra crossing, and I didn't stop. I nearly went back to explain the rules to him, but thought better of it

  • Yeah I had that a couple of days ago. I arrived at an empty crossing with the lights flashing amber for peds and vehicles alike. A guy on the pavement must have been three or four metres shy of the crossing (and had shown absolutely no interest in crossing the road up to that point) when I began riding through it, but he trotted up to it as I crossed and waved an angry arm at me to get my attention, shouting “it’s my right of way”. He actually broke into a run to make his point... like Donald Trump with a black Sharpie.
