Of course there is a millitant **** on a bicycle who always uses the main part of the road to assert his rights as a road user. He even has a go-pro to record all the near misses he causes. |

Check your mirrors frequently, and if necessary, pull in where it is safe and let traffic pass." I don't see why the princple should not apply to any road user, even horse riders (who often seem to do it). -- Iain |

This usually makes it illegal to operate a vehicle within the designated area. Unfortunately under Crank v Brooks 1980 once you dismount from your bicycle you are a pedestrian. |

Since when did cyclists start to worry about keeping to the law? A bicycle could just move to the side, there would be no need to enter the coned off area. I frequently see cyclists going the wrong side of traffic islands, ignoring traffic signs, cycling where it is illegal to do so, and even riding the wrong way around roundabouts, so the idea that one would be worried about entering a coned off road works area is really laughable. |
