Doesn't bother me to TBH.

IMAO they're good for starting arguments and buqqer all else.

Globalti said:I used to have a colleague called Norma who refused to allow her husband to drive on motorways, saying they were too dangerous. Nothing we could say would convince her that they are actually the safest roads for cars. So when they drove down to see her sister in Cornwall they used to go on the old A roads all the way.
Everybody called her "Norma F*ckwit". People like her are allowed to ride bikes without any training at all.

Anyway, we were both waiting for the lights to change when a POB cycled along the pavement behind us, dropped into the road at the ASL, screamed these are for bikes you f*****g idiot & continued through the red light!
I looked at the guy on the m/c & we just laughed!

Some people think that it is safer to cycle on the footpath than the carriageway. They are also wrong.
Cunobelin said:Depends on "safe" .... you are more likely to die in a motorway accident than on any other road.
Also if you remove the figures for the traffic that isn't allowed on a motorway, the figures are even less attractive. Finally make an allowance for the fact there are no and the two road types become comparable!
So it could be "Actually I was right Norma"!
