I know, I know, l think ive been quite fair between both car and bike on these threads but l just find it funny sitting back watching any of those ***** fight it out, they all deserve each other.
I didn't drive in rush hour traffic for a good few years and once you're desensitised it's really very scary how people are once you go back in. animals the lot of them.
Especially those ***** who drive the big AMG Mercs.

At least cyclist argue quite politely.

I had a disagreement with a fellow cyclist once about me jumping a red light...we politely agreed to disagree.

But the car had already started moving on the other side of the bridge. Even though I gave myself a head start.

There is not enough time for a cyclist to get over that bridge. If you wait for a green light then you will be facing on coming traffic, they will assume you jumped a red light. It's a no win.

Cyclist is me. Don't have this bike anymore.....or those cables.

A problem I on rare occasion have had aswell. Any well reasoned motorist would be able to tell that it was your turn and it just takes a little time to clear traffic lights, at least you know you did the right method.

I've had the same at a long road works. I went through on green, but clearly they changed to red and the opposing traffic then saw green. Leading opposing motorist flashed me, even though I didn't go through on red and the road was still 1.5 widths wide anyway, so it was easy for myself and a car to get by each other.
