Interesting thread. But 'slightly' hypercritical.......WARNING: RANT APPROACHING:-
Is LFGSS also going to support a programme to encourage cyclists to STOP at red lights?
The HGV's have to, and all the other road users do. Is it the same cyclists that undertake and RLJ? I don't think its that clear-cut. But I do believe a vast number of 'serious' cyclists believe that they're 'advanced' enough not to bother with RL's, less experienced riders follow suite. They all set a bad example for all of us and all other motorists judge us by their standards.
Ride responsibly. People will start to notice. Attitudes will change.
(I stop at RL mainly because I need the rest).
