"Comment Of The Day
I'VE been impressed at the number of cyclists using our roads recently in the morning rush hour.
When they are having to fight against the huge volume of traffic, combined with the pollution from exhaust fumes, I admire their bravery.
But only one out of the 20 or so cyclists I saw actually dismounted to cross at the green man, instead of cycling through the red traffic light.
If cyclists want to use the roads, they should follow the same Highway Code as drivers. They ought to remember that they are not immune to being stopped for going through a red light.

Great public information published in a Scottish red top.

Words fail me....
(I pointed this letter out to a colleague and a discussion on cycling ensued. He told me that when he was out on his bike last night, he thought he was going to get pulled over by the police for cycling without a helmet...)
