    That taxi is either driving in or parked in a cycle lane... Single yellows though, so why not? Everyone else can go around...

    Sensible idea, surely in the best interests of the cabbies to protect themselves from all those malicious claims from vindictive cyclists of their allegedly poor and/or aggresive driving standards

    @kaputnik that's at the bottom of Holyrood Rd. There has only been 3 occasions in the past 2 years of passing every day (twice) that there hasn't been taxis parked there. Nonsense bit of "infrastructure".

    "A former senior police officer, who declined to be identified, said the devices could help officers solve serious crimes by acting as the “eyes and eyes” of the city."

    Granted, he's a former officer, but considering the attitude towards most cycle cam footage, it sounds a bit of a double standard to be so enthusiastic.

    And, “eyes and eyes”? :-D
