What is it that some people - even some cyclists - don't get about the
real world out there? Above ANYTHING, cyclists should adopt defensive
cycling techniques to ensure their own safety. No law or code can - or
should - take precedence over that.

If that's a polite euphemism for blocking the road and holding traffic
up, it's far from likely to ensure their safety. It will simply ensure
that other road users regard the sanctimonious cyclist with contempt,
and that the less tolerant ones will make a point of repaying his/her
discourtesy.

You mean killing cyclists is ok?

He did not say or imply that. Read what he wrote.

That would require skills in the use of English.
