It's difficult to know what was the state of mind of the borough
engineer who decided to site a lamp-post in the middle of the
carriageway (or of a cycle-lane).

I failed to find the bit in the report where it says the lamp post was
situated in the middle of the road/path, do you have some local
knowledge?

On the strength of the quoted report I make it the cyclists fault not
the borough engineers or anyone else's for that matter.

These lamp post weapons should be banned.

You should write "goak" or something to help the lesser mortals in the

Many years ago, I was cycling after dark and a woman stopped me to ask
whether I could see a bollard on a cycle way. I simply answered "no, you
have to know it's there". I would have had a Never Ready front lamp at that
time. The answer satisfied her and we didn't engage in further conversation.

Don't make assumptions.
