The RLJ crackdown might be a public relations exercise to soften the general public up for the next part of a larger London cycling campaign (I hope). If the police are visibly hard on RLJ cyclists now, then in a few weeks there will be a sympathetic audience when they (the po po) get tougher on drivers using their vehicles as a weapon.
Basically, every man woman and child should go on a cycling holiday in Holland at some point in their lives (preferably before they get a driving license) to understand that weather you are a car, bike, or pedestrian, we are all traffic. Free hugs and all that.
