And they weren't the same people morning and night - just the same people on each respective journey - my poor english!
And I hope it saps their soul, because it saps my patience. Like Fox says, these people do nothing to restore any respect for cyclists from motorists, or, come to think of it, knee-jerk politicians, who are responsible for doing something about the current "war on motorists".
faaaaark. I've been harbouring this rant for awhile. I know plenty of rlj'ers who are lovely, and obviously they ride well enough to avoid getting into trouble for doing it, but it seems pretty selfish to me, as someone who would like to see more people cycling and politicians actively doing something to help make it happen. and rlj-ing doesn't help.
I can't find the post now but Cliveo responded to the idea that motorists get pissed off by the sight of cyclists jumping red lights by suggesting that cyclists stop at red lights - trackstand or whatever - and move off with rest of the traffic.
If you don't live up to the popular prejudiced perceptions of cyclists as RLJ/pavement terrorists that could quite easily piss motorists off.
