Riding over chevrons?
 
I frequently jump long queues of cars by riding through areas where the road is painted with white stripes bordered by a broken white line. I was surprised to go past a couple of bikes the other day who were queuing rather than drive over the chevrons. Thought I'd see how many people see the chevron areas as their own like me and how many would rather not....

But under rule 109 on a bike its always necessary :lol:

I simply ride according to the conditions, and don't pay too much heed to the rules and regs - I don't mean that to sound arrogant, it's just that I believe common sense and experience should always prevail (officer :oops: :lol: ).

Sometimes - but only when it's necessary because the lane is blocked, slow moving, etc. (though I guess that counts as being in a hurry, so...)

When there are people in my way and I consider it safe.

You consider it safe to ride over people who are in your way? :shock:

Whenever it's safe, I feel like it and there are no Police cars.
