Find an RLJ thread and change the offence from RLJ to speeding- I guarantee you that the arguments and sentiments for RLJing cyclists and speeding motorists are 100% identical.
I made sure it was safe
there was no one else around/coming (the other way)
everyone else does it and they're ok/almost unsafe not too
everyone knows that rule is silly, I don't feel like I'm breaking the law really- it's not the same as mugging an old lady is it?
etc
I never said the argument was not the same but that the risk was not the same.
