Lorry Driver - thanks for the input. I also think 99% is a bit much but certainly the number of cyclist who undertake is too high. It is obvious to you, and to most of us, why they should not do it but sadly it is not at all obvious to many riders. I have spoken to cyclists I have seen doing this and they simply had no idea that it is risky. On the other hand they are often scared of overtaking. My commute takes me over Tower Bridge and I see it every day, cyclists stuck in the gutter when there is more than enough room for them to filter on the outside of the lane or where the traffic is moving so slowly they could easily stay in the traffic stream between vehicles where they would be visible.
The more different road users are able to talk to each other then the safer we all will be.
