Spent the last week in Paris, somewhere which has recently taken away road space for general traffic and built dedicated cycle lanes across the city.
Cycling has boomed as a result.
Let’s have a look at their infrastructure 🧵 Along the champs-elysees, one of the busiest roads in Paris, is a dedicated cycle lane.

Just wait until these guys hear about motorists!

Here are 6 videos highlighting that what they complain cyclists do, motorists also do.

It's almost as if its a people problem, not a mode of transport problem.

This doesn’t look like much. But this is one of the most important changes to cycling infrastructure in @yourcroydon for cyclists travelling from south to the north of the borough. @Stuart_King @InsideCroydon @CroydonCyclists thread 1/8 This is just a small section of the high street which is one way, going south only. Before there was a loading bay and a taxi stand. This was the missing link for cycling north. 2/8

On yesterday’s @mrjamesob show on @lbc he asked why do so many people hate on cyclists?
With his view point being that phone in radio shows like his took many calls from taxi drivers in the past who just hated on them.
Here’s my 2p. 1/11 He made one mistake, which he corrected. Stating that cyclists should ride to the left and shouldn’t ride two abreast. Which he attributed to his cycling proficiency test. And this is a problem, there’s been no cycle training for him since he was a child. 2/11

Are road users with cameras snitches/grasses? A thread on why road safety is important and why we should all do our bit.
As we know, around 1,700 deaths happen on our roads each year, this has been largely consistent for the past 10 years. 1/15 Any death is tragic, and some may truly be accidents, there are for most parts factors in play which we can improve on.
25% of fatalities happen because of a road user doing something they shouldn't. 21% of which is speeding. 2/15

With the end of year approaching, I thought I would do some analysis on the 62 police reports I've made so far to @metpoliceuk @MetCycleCops @MPSRTPC @london_cycling @psimonk @StopKillingCycl @DonnachadhMc Here is a break down of vehicle type: Breakdown of the incident types. 43% of reports for mobile phone. Far too many people using their phones to some degree whilst driving. Second is red lights. Surprising? Everyone seems to think cyclists are bad, yet I'm catching out motorists doing it!
