Overtaking cyclists is the one time I would like straight through pipes
. Cyclists riding with earpieces in really bugs me, how can they expect to hear much of surroundings, particularly if noise cancelling earpieces, and why aren't bikes fitted with rear view mirrors ( at least one on offside ), or even helmet mirrors - how can cyclists be fully aware of who is behind them ? I used to cycle quite a bit but would pull into verge and stop if people were behind trying to overtake, easier if you are on your own than in a group and less traffic then but because more drivers had ridden bicycles and motorbikes then they were more understanding, now people jump straight into cars and have no understanding of other road users, or even road conditions.
