Absolute clusterfuck of twats at the bottom of Regents Park this morning.
The lights were red for a good 60 seconds while I was waiting behind the offside of a left-indicating Sainsburys van, during which time fucking loads of completely self-absorbed 'me first' cretins attempted to get as close to the lights as possible, despite the ASL being obviously full, and access to it blocked by motorbikes and scooters.
The van driver showed remarkable patience, first allowing the half-dozen clueless idiots who'd stopped on his nearside to get ahead of him, and then still waiting while people continued to ride up his nearside after the lights had changed and he was trying to turn left.
I'd like to think that cyclists with a bit of common sense might stand out against such incompetence, but sadly I reckon we're more likely to be associated with it. Summer hasn't even started yet.
