How to make the roads safer?

I have never understood why the asl isn't treated like the yellow hatching on junctions. i.e. if you're in a car, you don't enter it until you can see that you can leave it.

it absolutely* is *though.

drivers still sit in box junctions like twats, the only difference is that when the other lanes of traffic want to come through their right of way they get arsey and hoot and swear and threaten the encroacher with death.

some silly cyclist making a comment doesn't bother them.

I've said this before; the standard of driving, both technically and legally, in this city is abominable in the extreme. I am surprised there are not even more "accidents" than there already are.

Yes, some cyclists are terrible, and I assume they are the same type of person who drives a car badly and dangerously, but if the danger of traffic and it's associated road restrictions was removed from the equation, would they still feel the need to ride in such a way?
