So what if she’ll have to cycle, walk, or take a bus? Plenty have to live that way due to finances, health, or just rejecting the risks of driving, so why shouldn’t she manage?

Why do drivers bang on about cyclists wearing hi viz and helmets when they can't even avoid poles that have lights on them? If they can knock over a metal pole then a helmet won't do much.

Colleague: Why can’t I drive to work without there being roadworks?
Me: Because they need to repair the damage that people driving to work do to the roads.
Silence.

A similar sign caught my eye when trying to navigate out of our hospital grounds. Cyclists are directed through a car park and are asked to look out for pedestrians, presumably walking to their cars. No signs for the car drivers to watch for other pedestrians or cyclists.

Too often women must choose between busy roads with little protection or quieter routes with poor lighting. Both are unsafe.
I’m calling on the Government to build the infrastructure needed to make women feel safe on our roads.

This has come to my attention. It’s my partner when he was in his 20’s. I still don’t trust him near a skateboard.
Driver at a junction with his car blocking the cycle path as he tries to pull out.
This #Norwich driver didn't like being asked to move back as I was trying to pass in the cycle lane. There was no-one behind at this point, but instead of reversing he said "It's 7am!". Then he said he was a "keen cyclist" himself, still not reversing to let me pass.

16.01.2026 17:18 — 👍 0 🔁 0 💬 2 📌 0"If you don't allow parking on the pavement, parked cars will have to block the road!" is just shifting the externalities of the fundamental problem - that there are too many cars - onto pedestrians, and particularly onto disabled pedestrians. If there's not space to pass, there's not space to park.

You cannot open fire on someone just because you feel threatened by their vehicle. If that were acceptable, or moral, I could have assaulted 100’s of drivers last year alone. But I wouldn’t.
