    I'd encourage anti-cyclist drivers labouring age-old whinges about 'jumping red lights and transitioning into pedestrian spaces' to spend a week on a bike commuting.

    Most cyclists I see are cautious, respectful road-users who are forced to use 'astandard' means merely to get to work without being knocked around the roads by hurtling masses of 1t+ lumps of metal.

    A minor point too - drivers tend to forget that cyclist provide their own power, meaning that starting off from red-lights and such isn't as easy as taking a foot off the brake, dropping another onto an accelorator - if you want to keep 'your' roads moving, you should cut us some slack.
