A friend of mine, motorcyclist, supportive of cycling safety has asked me what he could do differently to avoid coming into conflict with cyclists when turning into his drive, so I thought I would share this & see what everyone else thinks..
"What is the situation with undertaking and left hand turns? Our house drive is on the left just after a mini roundabout and several times I have been indicating left to turn into my drive and have had cyclists either tailgaiting or trying to move to undertake as I slow down to pull in - at the moment I haven't killed anyone as I habitually do a motorbike style check.. The other choice would be to stop and wait for them to undertake - so far I've made sure that it's not dangerous but I have been abused for the left hand turn - as far as I am aware undertaking is illegal, so I'm marginally confused"...
