I'm sorry but the light is red....

Just a quick one this time. Cyclists who do not regard the highway code as being relevent to them. There seem to be a lot about these days, especially in central London.

It seems that crossing on a pedestrian crossing when the man is green is no guarantee of safety these days, especially when there are reckless cyclists about. I have been nearly hit on a number of occasions in the last two months. But yesterday, I saw a classic.

Crossing Commercial Street in Spitalfields, myself and a group of people felt it was OK to go because the man was green and the lights were red. Easy, huh? But oh no, from out of nowhere, one of these two wheeled menaces flies up the street heading straight for us and - get this - rang his warning bell to make us all get out of the way! Twat!

I wasn't the only person grumbling, believe you me. Sometimes you want to just walk in front of them and risk injury to both parties just to make a point.

THE LIGHTS ARE RED, YOU PILLOCK, SO STOP.
