I caught this complete bellend on camera yesterday. Not only stopped in an ASL bike box, but his number plate’s illegal too.
people putting their cars in the ASL box is one of my biggest bug bears.

Mine too but unless I saw how he got there I can’t be sure he did so illegally.
It’s the ones who pull right alongside you in the ASL at a red light that tick me right off.

It's not necessarily a problem, if the light changes and he doesn't have time to stop before the first line he's perfectly entitled to stop before the second line.

He had plenty of time to stop.
There was no good reason for it. I was recording from a fair way back.

His number plate’s still dodgy anyway.

The evidence you have produced only shows you breaking the law.

Yeah, funny how that works isn't it. Driver crosses the stop line, outrageous. Cyclist does the same but that must be ok then?

Is it possible the lights had just changed, as he pulls up

Some people just don't know when to stop. Metaphorically AND literally.

Car at the front was indicating to turn right. If I arrived in that situation I would assume they had been waiting behind other right turning vehicles and when the lights changed the other cars turned and the 'offender' had correctly remained where they were, behind the ASL for the next traffic light sequence. Nothing to see here, move along.....

Exactly that. Hence the reason I stopped, and looked around.

Oh really. The light changed about a second after I stopped and put my foot down, so how is that showing me “breaking the law” then?

I was watching from a fair way back, that’s not what happened. He chose to move into the box, for no good reason.
