London riding standards are poor. I think a lot of commuter cyclists would be served well by having driving experience otherwise instances like the one which wiped out my mate in De Beauvoir become increasingly commonplace.
But I'm very rarely passed on the left. The odd shoaling nodder parks their front wheel there at lights, but I just put my leg across to the gutter to block them setting off until I have. If I'm only a road grate's width from the kerb, I don't want anyone in that space!

I was in Regents Park yesterday, for the first time in ages, and the general standard of riding was terrible.
Admittedly, I have a bee in my bonnet over it, but the number of cunts undertaking / passing on the left is incredibly high, in fact it doesn't happen anywhere else if I'm recalling properly.
