First post in a few months/years. Thought I'd share a moment that made my blood boil last night, so much so I riskily recorded it whilst cycling: http://youtu.be/XLQRuN-OwPw
On watching the footage I realized what vexed me so much wasn't the way he was driving up the ass of the poor cyclist ahead, nor the fact that he was actually slowing my journey but quite simply HE WAS QUEUE JUMPING!!! This is England!!
Worth Roadsafe-ing big brothers??
Some parts of CS8 have hours of operation (like many bus lanes). From memory, I think certain stretches of CS8 are Mon to Sat, 7am to 7pm. If the incident happened outside of the hours of operation, the driver would be allowed to use the CS lane - that does not mean it is advisable though. If it took place between the hours of operation, the driver should not be using a mandatory cycle lane.
The driver of this vehicle got a letter telling her not to attempt daft overtakes in future:
