Yeah those all make a lot of sense. I was thinking of writing to the backers of fixmystreet, and a suggestion to extend it, and allow it to incorporate accidents, and the cause, and a log of letters to the roads authority might be a good start.
Not sure if I'm barking up the wrong tree, but it just seems to me everything is a money decision: Bow was highlighted as dangerous, and yet it wasn't changed because of traffic flow concerns and costs implication
If there was an inherent costs implication in not making the changes, ie ignoring being put on notice and risking facing a stronger civil case for negligence, then it might swing the scales slightly more in favour of cyclists...
