Its much harder to spot the latter who may suddenly decide to cross the road or may be joggers who appear from nowhere.

I used to work near Holborn where crossing on a green man meant you still had to look for cyclists jumping the lights. Had a few near-misses.

I think jumping-the-lights has more to do with a macho mentality present in those who like to be perceived as a ’street warrior’.

But, as the last post noted, you end you alienating drivers and pedestrians. And remember pedestrians on another day are drivers too.

Even getting off your bike and using the pavement and pedestrian crossing needs to consider others. Even if just being pushed a bike is a large and potentially-painful bit of equipment.

I say stick to the roads and obey the highway code.

There’s no doubt that, however confident the cyclist is, there are real dangers in cycling in Southampton. I’ve seen several incidents during my commute along Shirley High Street.

Cycling on the pavement is not the answer (this doesn’t happen in Central London).

But spare a thought for the pedestrian who are even lower down the food chain.

Pedestrians who’ve been endangered/injuryed by ‘pavement cyclists’ are discouraged from walking. They’re more likely to revert to driving armed with a hatred of cyclists!

Stay off the pavement.

If it’s really true that the hideous Highway Code changes have been reversed that is outstanding news! Hurrah!

I would also question the wisdom of this decision on safety grounds. Given that cycle2work is quite likely to attract novice cyclists, and given that Halfords is often staffed by people who know nothing about bikes, I think we’re risking a novice cyclists riding an unsuitable bike which hasn’t been properly assembled, or which won’t be safety checked after it’s been on the road for a few weeks.

This looks like a decision taken by somebody who knows little about cycling (as it would seem are most decisions relating to cyclists).

I’ve lost count of the number of motorists I’ve had conversations with who, when they discover I’m a cyclist, say that they wish I would obey red traffic lights. When I point out that I do, they find this hard to believe (since all cyclists are the same to them), and then they launch into a tirade against cyclists ignoring the rules of the road. If we want to be treated with respect on the road, rather than contempt, I think we have to look at our own behaviour.

Finally, on this topic, I often get off and walk across the junction if the traffic light is against me - this strikes me as a legal (if somewhat slower) way of not having to wait for the lights. This is especially easy on routes you use regularly, as you learn the phasing of the lights, and know when and where it’s worth doing this. I remember a CTC magazine article explaining that to keep within the law you have to walk rather than run, scoot or ride, but it’s still usually possible to get across before the lights change.
