Police spotting (junction watch)

Ed should obviously have asked them which advice, or law referred to, in the Highway Code would have led them to their assumption. The simple answer, of course, is that there is none.

I've done that before, and perhaps it's the way I worded it (poorly), it got them antsy when I questioned what law they were referring to after they realise they actually don't know it, and nobody liked being questioned.

Having what appear to be a discussion about what I should do instead of riding on the centre of the lane helped keep it civilised.
