B3TA fixes the world
Moon Monkey says: Turn into Jeremy Clarkson for a moment, and tell us about the things that are so obviously wrong with the world, and how they should be fixed. Extra points for ludicrous over-simplification, blatant mis-representation, and humourous knob-gags.

My daily commute means I cycle 21 miles a day (though not in London)
I obey all the traffic laws, stop at junctions no matter what, indicate, wait at lights etc. I have done many many thousand miles since I started riding and can quite honestly say the most colossal twats are 4x4 drivers. In just the last week I have had one pull out of a parking space right across my path and stop then give me a mouthful because I hit their precious vehicle. I have had one overtake me, instantly slam on their brakes and turn left in to a driveway, I managed to just swerve around them but if a car had been coming the other way I'd have been in trouble and just this morning coming in I had one overtake me in thick fog on a blind corner causing some poor woman in her little saxo to slam on her brakes and stall her car. I am seriously considering getting a helmet cam to film some of these twats. Oh and don't get me started on the shit they do to me on roundabouts, cunts!

By choice I walk 2 miles through central London on my daily commute
And I have seen some terrible driving, but I rarely see cars - 4x4s included - jump red lights, or drive on the pavement, or shout "CUUUNNNTTT!" at pedestrians having the audacity to walk out in front of them on a pedestrian crossing when the green man's on.
But hey ho.
