Ah, the usual turgid STW “discussion” on rights/wrongs of how to cycle on the roads properly 🙁
Personally, I’m glad that the police are (at least looking like) they’re taking cycling safety seriously in the city. Don’t think RLJ-ing specifically is the issue, to be honest, but generally the attitude of motorists to cyclists.
I’ve had two run ins with drivers in as many weeks, and it’s nothing to do with jumping lights, just a lack of awareness on the part of the drivers that cyclists are incredibly vulnerable. Sadly, cyclists who RLJ are implying to drivers that they are not vulnerable and basically “fair game” on the roads. I think anyway…
