EEN: Time to put the brakes on bad bikers
At least Artemis and Road Raga are sticking up for cyclists as a whole, and for respectful riding.
CityCyclingEdinburgh was launched on the 27th of October 2009 as "an experiment".
IT’S TRUE!
CCE is 15years old!
Well done to ALL posters
It soon became useful and entertaining. There are regular posters, people who add useful info occasionally and plenty more who drop by to watch. That's fine. If you want to add news/comments it's easy to register and become a member.
RULES No personal insults. No swearing.

I don't know why I'm bothering though. Mainly to make the point that Catriona Patel stopped at the red light, and died, whereas people who jumped it survived.
should not have read the comments..
I wondered why they didn't have comments enabled on the original; they were saving up for this one.
"Lights are indeed part of traffic, and I dont mean you shouldn't obey them, but you should defiantly not trust them to tell you if its safe to go or not, for that you need to be looking and thinking. Too many drivers blindly follow what the light says, and this culture encourages that"
Gotcha, sorry, my fault for not reading properly. And yes, I can only wholeheartedly agree. Much like another thread with stories of being beeped at by drivers for not going on green because you were waiting for an ambulance with blues and twos going to pass that they hadn't seen in their blind need to go on green.
And I'm not reading that article linked to above. Come round to the belief that such arguing is a total waste of time.
The article is troll bait but the comments are... approaching balanced...
Off I go...
