With so little traffic even in rush hour and the overheated motorists sweating in their little metal boxes has anybody noticed that there are quite a few really idiotic drivers racing around town at silly speeds? Give them a bit of clear road and they've floored it.
Had some really bad swerving overtakes at speed. Just yesterday a huge articulated lorry drove up the wrong side of the road just as a group of cyclists had legitimately crossed into the road from a green light. He just barged his way through. All went on his inside - yuk, I stayed back but got caught behind him until he turned off. Lorries pulling off from kerbs with no indication.
Huge number of cyclists which is a good thing of course but quite a lot of them have no idea what they're doing. No signalling, no looking behind, no checking before they turn off left or right, undertaking, passing too close, endless.
No change in black cab behaviour, at least they're consistently vengeful so there are no surprises there.
Maybe when traffic "resumes" as normal in September they'll be forced to slow down.
