Parallel crossing (sorry for Leicester link - was first one that came up):
https://leicestershirehighways.org.uk/traffic-schemes/parallel-crossing/
"Parallel crossings enable cyclists to cross a road safely and with the same level of priority as a zebra crossing gives a pedestrian. The crossing looks similar to a zebra crossing but also includes a cycling crossing area which is parallel to the zebra crossing area, this is marked by broken white lines."
But in practice, you're right, some cunt will have no idea about them and drive through.
Highway Code rule 195, if you're interested - "you MUST give way when a pedestrian or cyclist has moved onto a crossing". So peds and cyclists have priority, but with a massive pinch of salt in the real world.

Who has right of way here?
Cycle lane routes directly across a road. Is next to a zebra crossing but not a zebra crossing.
I take this route every day and cars seem to stop for cyclists, but one day I'm sure someone won't.
Seems quite an odd design to me particularly with no signage covering right of way... normally from what i've seen when cycle lane cross roads there is a traffic light managing it.
