I wonder if it is going to get nippy when the fines start to be handed out.</p> <p>On the other thread related to this with the fines for driving in the bus lane, I wonder if the two car drivers who use the bus lanes all the time are going to pay their fines.? </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=6457#post-69411 Tue, 08 May 2012 02:45:52 +0000 TwoWheels 69411@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>I've seen a few threads about cyclist-police relations on this forum recently, and I have to say that, all in all, you seem to be quite civil to one another.</p> <p>Especially when I compare it to what happens over here. There is so very little respect between the two camps that I don't think I'll ever trust riding on the roads here.</p> <p>Did I mention that, more than anything, I miss riding in a civilized country such as yours? </p>
