fck em all. cnt on scooter went by me at full pelt while i was in the middle of a buslane. dickhead was so close i felt the warmth of his fckn engine on my leg. they try to squeeze through gaps at lights when they know all they'll acheive is block us cyclists...so fckn inconsiderate. they occupy all the ASL's and the cycle lane on the side and as a result puts me in danger in between cars, buses and trucks. i get into an arguement almost every morning for each moped blockin my way to an ASL. if only i could trackstand...id be trackstanding across to block at least 3 or 4 moped at each ASL.
re motorbikes on buslanes, wouldnt that only encourage them to go fast, ie even past the speed limit cos that would serve as an 'overtaking' lane. i reckon this puts us cyclists in danger. imagine it, this would make swerving to avoid potholes/manhole covers/drains even harder with fckn mopeds occupying the buslane
