Cars
"Here in my car", said 80s pop hero Gary Numan, "I feel safest of all". He obviously never shared the same stretch of road as me, then. Automotive tales of mirth and woe, please.

I'm going to throw my weight behind Vagabond here
I've been knocked down by cyclists twice while walking in London, once on a pedestrian crossing. It's a miracle if I see one actually stop at a red light, and zebra crossings don't seem to apply to them unless they're using it to cross the road on their bike. When you mention this sort of thing it's as he says - they believe that they should be above the law, and when you criticise them they get defensive and petulant like a six year-old who's just been told to stop hitting playing with himself in public.

BUt as someone mentioned above...
Do you see bikes stopped at lights and think, "what a good cyclist."? NO, you don't. You only pay attention to the dicks, rather than the rest of the cyclists who are law abiding. I hate the guys who jump lights as much as anyone else, and I cycle to work everyday.

And as someone else said above, yes I do see a cyclist stopped at lights and think "what a good cyclist"
Because it's such a rarity.

Sorry, I wasn't implying you didn't, and it is nice that you do...
But most others don't.
