Well if it helps we have a very narrow road with passing places near us. So narrow there is a separate clearly signed cycle lane. Buses fill it completely give or take a foot either side & there is a high kerb so no way to run off into the grass. Passing a cyclist is therefore very risky

As I crawled past a MAMIL & his partner on this stretch of road I asked why they didn't use the far safer cycle path that is clearly indicated . I was told I was a K***b my parents weren't married & that if the road was unsafe I should take more care. I pointed out the cycle path that rejoined at this point & was told sex and travel.

I understand & indeed give space to cyclists , horses & pedestrians, my aim is not kill anyone when driving I have no desire to do that . But why you deliberately ignore the safe sectioned off route for bicycles fails me.

People can be vary odd in their perception of risk
I decided today to avoid this route in future as this is an accident waiting to happen and the cyclists clearly see it differently.
