Could be. I remember the Express, Standard and Metro all running similar stories when I worked in London, but that was more than a few years back.
Evening Standard is part owned (29sh %?)by the Daily Mail
Metro is DMG owned (that's the Daily Fail Group) and is generally recycled DM stuff, or as somebody in the office described it 'yesterday's news, today'
The House of Commons Transport Committee is also to hold an oral evidence session on cycle safety on December 2 to "stimulate debate".
my hopes are not high
could we have a game of bullshit bingo on this
Im calling headphones,red light jumping and helmets,

Was just reading the Met chief's comments. Not entirely helpful are they?... apparently the only reason people ride in London is because they can't afford the congestion charge. WTF.
yeah the man is a first class pleb
Met man is right! Cancel the congestion charge, more people drive leading to more congestion and slower average speeds. Safer for the remaining cyclists who have not returned to cars to pass traffic (on outside preferably). Maybe.
That's a bit worrying, apparent stupidity of the chap on the bike notwithstanding, surely the bus driver should have stopped!?
i trust the bus driver reported the incident, Remember Emma Way was fined £677 and 7 points for not reporting an accident....

Ah - could have been the Wail, ES and Metro that all ran similar stories.

so true. 😆 Who wants yesterday's papers?
I had to mount the curb and pavement in an emergency move to avoid a black cab that cut the corner and totally ignored the cycle lane today.... I hate black cabs. I've put a complaint in via the tfl website. They say that matters of road law will not be dealt with and should be referred to the police.... Which is fair enough. It leaves me thinking though that tfl will probably dismiss my complaint but if I reported this to the police I doubtit would be taken seriously by them either. Leaves me thinking the taxi driver will not get any warning.... Shoes full of wee are what I'd Luke to dish out now.
