Cycle campaigning

I'm bringing my argument right back round to the beginning now (sorry). I see more near misses caused by poor cycling every day during rush hour than caused by drivers, lorries or layout yet so little discussion is around improving the cyclist.

The question you should be asking is why is there's poor cycling in the first place? what made them hug the kerbs, undertake HGV, jump red light, ride on pavement?

I'll give a good example;

notice the skid mark nearing a junction.

The current infrastructure put them in such position, telling them that they should hug the kerbs, giving them the illusion that it's a perfectly safe manoeuvre, and undertaking vehicles is perfectly fine.

The next question is, what can we do to help them realised that such manoeuvre isn't helping them? no matter how much campaigning we can do, the infrastructure tend to 'reset' most of the work LCC (amongst other) do.

at least this is my 2 cents.

(the picture is one of many I've taken to illustrate the danger of left hook/driver pulling out and putting the cyclists at risk).
