I ride a Dawes Karakum which is comfortable but heavy. Hub dynamo,

and clothing. Sometimes I have been tempted to add a copy of the
Highway Code to show to motorists who insist cyclists are required by
law to use cycle paths but ASL's are optional for bus and taxi
drivers.

I've considered printing out a few of the sections that the more
egregiously ignorant motorists need to understand, so I can just stick
them in a window or under a wiper, the better to inform them of their
error. But it would probably be too much trouble to dig out the
appropriate piece and deliver it, as I no longer use a handlebar bag.

I can top that.

When I was crossing a road on foot, a driver nearly ran me over as she turned into my road from a main road. Since my daughter had an old AA learner driver DVD and rule book going spare, the day after, I left it propped up on the driver's house front door with a print out of HC Rule 170 attached to it.

At the time, I insisted that it was SHE that had to give way to ME, but she once again, (as drivers do), spent 5 minutes arguing the toss despite being in SO much of a hurry.
