"Tom was stuck in a queue behind a Cyclist refusing to use the brand new orange cycle lane built by the council with no broken glass or litter in sight. He rode provocatively, cockily wanting confrontation with law abiding cars. Tom is no expert but cars are not allowed in cycle ways but cyclists can ride on the road. This bugger reeked of aggression and self entitlement with a chip on his shoulder. Made Toms blood boil" Out of interest Tom, how far were you going? Could you have got on your bike and made other road users' blood boil? | |||

"This bugger reeked of aggression and self entitlement with a chip on his shoulder." Actually Tom, the entitlement is real, as cyclists are allowed on the road. So are horses, to use but one more example. The roads belong to everyone. If there was any miss-placed self entitlement it’s with you Tom, believing the cyclist had no right to be on the road. | |||

Made Toms blood boil" Hey Tom do you not like cyclists as it seems most motorists dont ,if you've seen the state of the areas that have been repaired all at the motorists expense of course because the bicycle doesn't wear the road out like the very heavy cars and lorries but never the less pretty shoddy road surfaces for the poor cyclist to ride on and we ride bikes because many of us are in the low income bracket so can't aspire to a very costly car ,all that road tax mot and insurance plus fuel must cost a fortune to upkeep ,I do use cycle lanes when I know they are there mind. | |||

"As a keen cyclist myself I always use cycle lanes its hilarious when road users state we don't pay road tax when infact we do for our cars plus i am insured I must admit i have had a few arguments with drivers etc its a love hate relationship its totally different out in majorca though cycling " I'm also a cyclist and a motorist. Like you, I'm insured as a cyclist but I don't really pay road tax cos my car has a small engine and doesn't pollute much 
Let's all forget labels. I'm not really a cyclist or a motorist. I'm a person, and I like other people. | |||

"...... instead two if not three abreast on two blind dangerous bends they decide to be selfish and create a danger opportunity. " Here's a bit from Rule 61 of the Highway Code about cycle routes. (You'll already know this as a car driver!). "cyclists may exercise their judgement and are not obliged to use them." Rule 72 (which you already know) sets out when and why cyclists should ride in the centre of the lane. In essence, by riding in the centre of the lane, they prevent you from carrying out a dangerous overtake on the two blind bends, reducing danger, not increasing it. Gbat | |||

"There's long road nr me, lovely cycle path. Most cyclists on the bloody road 2 abreast. Same self entitled aggressive attitude, the youngsters use the path, it's the lycra clad plebs that don't" One of the reasons cyclists in groups often cycle 2 abreast is that it halves the length of a string of cyclists, thereby making it easier for motorists to safely overtake. When driving over 30 mph cars should leave 2 m width when overtaking one bike, so this usually means partially crossing onto the other carriageway anyway. | |||

Why is it that the uk are so full of entitled motorists who think that cycles/caravans/horses/trucks and buses are in their way and should move for them? It’s seems to me that the uk is just a hotbed of marginalised mayhem, for any number of reasons, right down to a mode of transport. It’s pathetic. | |||

X" Most cycle lanes are simply just not safe for high speed cycling either for the cyclists or other pedestrian users either sharing the path or walking near by it. It also doesn't help that many motorist seem to view cycle lanes as free parking and/or loading lanes. The roads don't belong just to motorists, and "no" we don't fund them through your road tax (mostly because road tax hasn't existed for over 50 years). Roads are mostly funded by local councils which we all pay for. | |||

Regularly I get a gaggle (that's 10-15) cyclists on a country road, too close to overtake one at a time and impossible to overtake them all at once. | |||

"A couple of years ago when I attended a Speed Awareness Course, the instructor asked what did attendees find most frustrating on the roads. The universal answer was cyclists. Where I used to live a cycle lane was built between two villages on safety grounds due the bends in the road with a 60mph speed limit. A safety thing. About a year afterwards a cyclist and bus collided and the cyclist died. When cycling I put my personal safety first as I know I'm vulnerable. I pull in to let vehicles pass. Yes the journey takes longer but better to be alive than enforce my rights and be dead." There are other ways of maintaining your safety. Preventing cars from an unsafe overtake by taking a middle position is one. Filming wankers and submitting the footage to the relevant police force is another. | |||

If it’s unsafe to overtake…then why are you overtaking? If a motorbike or bicycle were to ride within a meter of the kerb THAT is encouraging a dangerous overtake, by maintaining road position…just think with your head…that person, that moron, that prick in Lycra (who will overtake you at the next set of lights) has kids at home and his dad just wants to get home just as much as you A safe overtake is only when it is safe to so…it really couldn’t be made simpler | |||

Do it from the layby if you prefer. By the sound of things you'll be there a while."Actually pulling in and letting cars past doesn't take long, often just a few seconds. Some people grow horns when behind a wheel or handlebar, and become very angry at other road users. I believe it's called road rage. I also tend to avoid aggresive d*unks as well. Both are impossible to reason with. | |||

" 2 or more cyclists can at least do something about how much of the road they’re using by going one behind the other when cars are behind them " But that often makes things worse.

We hope that at some point in the future you are able to recover from this trauma. | |||

"These cycle lanes are painted bright orange. You can't miss them and yet some cyclist with bullhorns who cannot use his gears likes the power of the highway code and cocks a snoot at every car driver who says his car tax" Tom get up to date on the news. Car tax stopped in 1937 and became vehicle excise duty. It is now based on emissions to air and cost of the car when new. Nothing to do with road tax hence why different cars pay different amounts | |||

"I think part of the driving test should be that you should stand at the side of a road and a car/van/lorry/hgv passes you at 20/30/40/50/60 mph at a distance away from you of a car doors width. At that point drivers may realise why other road users behave as they do. There are equally as many bad drivers as there are cyclists and other road users " Better still make it a requirement to walk for a mile along a country lane prior to taking a driving test. | |||

"There's long road nr me, lovely cycle path. Most cyclists on the bloody road 2 abreast. Same self entitled aggressive attitude, the youngsters use the path, it's the lycra clad plebs that don't One of the reasons cyclists in groups often cycle 2 abreast is that it halves the length of a string of cyclists, thereby making it easier for motorists to safely overtake. When driving over 30 mph cars should leave 2 m width when overtaking one bike, so this usually means partially crossing onto the other carriageway anyway." _ When I overtake any vehicle when driving my car I go fully on to the other lane. Never understood why some car drivers do not do the same with bicycles, only with cars. Makes me wonder why they overtake me so close when I ride a bicycle. | |||

"This evening in pitch dark and before the moon had risen, I luckily saw a cyclist in front of me with no lights, no reflector, dressed all in black no helmet no hi vis, I shouted "Do you want to die?'. Unfortunately i didn't have time to lower the window to make sure he heard. If he'd said yes I could have happily obliged but it would have been the end of my driving career as I am quite sure there would have been a presumption of his innocence despite his beeing a total and utter prat with no sense of road safety. The sad thing is that I have seen this so many times. Just imagine if I had been distracted at the time, including by bright lights coming towards me as is so often the case with modern cars." The thermonuclear LED weapons installed on modern cars needs a thread of its own…they are simply lethal to anyone driving in the opposite direction. | |||

I may fit into the category because because who else exercises in cotton... Google's new Ai informs me: "The term plebeian referred to all free Roman citizens who were not members of the patrician, senatorial or equestrian classes" " Plebeians were average working citizens of Rome who worked hard to support their families and pay their taxes." That would be me...also.

"This thread turned fun" Well the venom and reckless hatred aimed at cyclists on this forum on a regular basis is frankly sickening,I've lost three friends in cycling accidents due to poor drivers,my son was nearly killed by a woman who was too busy chatting on her phone,I've been knocked off and had various things thrown at me. I drive many miles every year and when on my bike I cycle consideratly yet many drivers don't think about the consequences of their actions. I'm not saying cyclists are always innocent parties but to survive on the roads on a bike you have to take quite an aggressive riding style in a bid to get seen. Bringing back cycling proficiency tests at school would be a major step towards road safety and understanding of road use. But I'll keep posting deaths as long as these threads keep getting put up. And believe me I can fill up thread after thread with fatalities caused by dangerous drivers. Whereas fatalities caused by cyclists is probably less than two or three a year! Not that makes it right. Let's treat everyone with equal respect. I've called out bad cyclists before many times. | |||

Everyone I know who cycles is happy and lives longer...everyone I know who drives only is....well....the opposite. One of my playmates is a triathlete who drives all over the country for meets ( the athletic ones not the fab ones) so.... Personally I try not to have physical contact with the ....um...wildlife/animals that do not belong to me. Consent is a thing. | |||

This bugger reeked of aggression and self entitlement with a chip on his shoulder. Made Toms blood boilHey Tom do you not like cyclists as it seems most motorists dont ,if you've seen the state of the areas that have been repaired all at the motorists expense of course because the bicycle doesn't wear the road out like the very heavy cars and lorries but never the less pretty shoddy road surfaces for the poor cyclist to ride on and we ride bikes because many of us are in the low income bracket so can't aspire to a very costly car ,all that road tax mot and insurance plus fuel must cost a fortune to upkeep ,I do use cycle lanes when I know they are there mind." Thank you very much for your post. 1, you don't pay or have never paid road tax, as it was abolished in the 1930's. You pay vehicle excise duty, it is a levy based on how much crap comes out of your exhaust. I drive a 2014 ford focus diesel engined car, I currently get free VED. So more fool you for buying a car that you need to pay a duty on. As for the paying for the repairs to the road, anyone who pays their council tax is actually paying for the up keep of the roads. I think the cyclist has a right to use the roads that he is paying for. | |||

Let's treat everyone with equal respect. I've called out bad cyclists before many times." I drive, cycle, take public transport, swim and walk defensively. I've come to realise in middle age that I can't convince anyone else of anything so the best thing I can do is to protect myself. As fun as middle-aged rants are....I try to limit them and conserve my precious perimenopausal energy for.....shagging and sexual exploits. Lol! I went to swimming lessons, driving lessons and road cycling lessons. Lol! A lot of London cyclists do not drive and do not realise that they are in the blind spot of a vehicle. I also avoid roundabouts and complex junctions with no designated appropriately time delayed cycle green light. I cannot rely on other road users for my safety and it's my job to make sure I do not hit pedestrians...even if they step out into the middle of the road. I cycle slow around school pick-up time because kids and parents often do not look and they can't hear the cycle coming like a car motorcycle engine. Stay safe people. | |||

I'm too fatigued to get angry most days now...conserving middle-aged perimenopausal energy and all that.
I mean I could convince my GP to give me some sedatives again or legal cannabis if road users ( Cyclists and car drivers) need to take a chill pill..
Oh wait that's why I don't drive....the prescribed drugs. Lol!
Look as a crazy person and a person who has frequented other people's court hearings and police station statements, please take some prescribed substances ( HRT, testosterone, Viagra,CBD, valium) before you end up in the justice system....and/or the psych ward.

I drive in the new forest with work at least twice a week and the amount of CARS that overtake in the strict 40mph speed limit is frightening I've witnessed many animals narrowly avoid being hit by vehicles regularly.

"I thought feminists were the easiest people to offend, then this thread happened 🤯🤦🏻♂️😂 The mr " I get what you mean and yup I'm with you on the oversensitive but, however this is an accumulative thing. It's not this thread but this thread plus the many many proceeding it with the constant barrage of hate and vitriol aimed at cyclists usually involving the use of acts of violence being accepted. I guess I am trying to make people understand that whilst a cyclist for most is a mere inconvenience to your journey adding a few seconds to your trip. But for a cyclist car's lorries and vans are potential killers. It's not about being sensitive it's more about a reality check understanding that cyclists are humans even if you don't see it that way. | |||

"As a keen cyclist myself I always use cycle lanes its hilarious when road users state we don't pay road tax when infact we do for our cars plus i am insured I must admit i have had a few arguments with drivers etc its a love hate relationship its totally different out in majorca though cycling The whole of Europe & Scandinavia are cycle friendly. Why is it that the uk are so full of entitled motorists who think that cycles/caravans/horses/trucks and buses are in their way and should move for them? It’s seems to me that the uk is just a hotbed of marginalised mayhem, for any number of reasons, right down to a mode of transport. It’s pathetic. " People forget the roads in England were originally made for horse/cart and cycles. Problem is England isn’t big enough to widen roads or accommodate the increase in road use. It’s an evil cycle, people can moan about cyclists and their ways but cyclists can easily moan about drivers actions also. What everyone forgets that at the end of the day it’s a human being on that bicycle who is much more vulnerable than a car. The law is protecting them so if somone is so upset about it join parliament and make that change. Otherwise chill out and take a breath. | |||

Bicycles have ridden the roads for over 200yrs. It’s the addition of the motor vehicle and impatient and ‘so called entitled society’ that is the issue"So it's not the cycle lane that is dangerous but the inability of pedestrians and/or cyclists to use the cycle lanes safely | |||

"It’s pedestrians that have the most to fear from cyclists, inconsiderate, dangerous cycling on pavements, going through red lights while pedestrians are crossing is something I see every day . They know authorities are powerless in trying to identify them Total cunts 😡" 5 people a day are killed by car drivers 2-3 per year by cyclists Pedestrians have far more to fear from big metal boxes driven at speed. | |||

" So it's not the cycle lane that is dangerous but the inability of pedestrians and/or cyclists to use the cycle lanes safely" Cycle paths can be very risky. Quite a few pedestrians have ear buds in and can't hear me ringing my bell, or they will be walking side by side and don't want to budge over. Roads are far safer to ride on. | |||
