90 quids in fines in two days

That's the problem tho: none of it gets enforces. If the lane is on a pavement peds ignore its existance and wander along it, if its on the road motorists ignore it and park on it. I particuarly hate cycle lanes that take you off the road and round the otuside of a rondabout, then make you give way at every exit. So I ignore the hell out of them and then you get abuse from motorists.

Remember that there is no obligation on you to use them--we have that freedom in this country. The recent case of the Telford One (Daniel Cadden if you want to Google) reinforced the point.

Lanes and tracks are low in the hierarchy of solutions. We generally aim for more ambitious improvements that have no chance of ending up here:
