Filtering is generally tolerated, but needs to be done cautiously and doesn't require other road users to "make way" for the filterer (although some deliberate blocking is plain childishness on the part of drivers It is no better or worse than cyclists deliberately blocking drivers "taking the lane". In my opinion, drivers blocking cyclists wishing to filter and cyclists blocking drivers to try prevent them passing are both inconsiderate and unacceptable practices on the road. How can a driver block a cyclist wishing to filter? he'd have to be able to expand the width of his vehicle. No, just reduce the gap between the vehicle and the curb or vehicle and an adjacent vehicle. He can't do that on both sides simultaneously. And he's *supposed* to keep left in any case. So why do many bicyclists still try to slip through on the left? |
