...riding down the road today it occured to me that there arn't enough lines on the road. What we need is for the inside lane of busy'A' roads in particular to be divided by a new line (green?). The purpose of this is to tell morons (drivers) that if a cyclist is present they MUST only pass if they can safely do so without being in the inside section of the inner lane. It would look a little like a cycle lane on the actual roadway.Ordinarily cars will be able to drive along the road as normal, the new green line only comes into force as they pass cyclists. Inside the new inner green zone the cyclist is king, touch him/her and the driver is automatically deemed at fault regardless of anything. This would be in addition to not in place of existing rules. I suppose it would really be a visual reminder of what is pretty much expected under the highway code but in practice rare occurs.
