5) If you are complaining about being ‘nearly’ hit by a bike or seeing cyclists run reds, but you’ve never mentioned the 29,000 motor KSIs or endemic speeding & phone driving; you’re not serious about road danger, you're just unfairly othering cyclists as a uniquely law-breaking collective

Any thoughts @johnjohnstewart.bsky.social
I did have a look at recent pedestrian deaths last night and it is shocking. It is almost invisible - many of the deaths don't even get reported in the local news. Here are a few of the recent ones:
I don’t see the outrage, the horror the posts, the call for change about driver and car carnage. Just silence about the 29000 KSIs every year. Every year.
Here’s a taste from the last couple of days…

At a webinar about #robotpavementdeliveries. How on earth have these been allowed? Why is there no proper push for delivery points to avoid so many home deliveries anyway? @livingstreets.bsky.social

Why do we in this country make such a deal about straightforward things. Every time I travel to Europe (and for many years) I pay #citytax at every hotel/airbnb. It’s a perfectly good name and the right thing to do. ‘Overnight tax’ is just fussy!!!

This arbitrary use of #nocycling signs on #cyclelanes is just ridiculous. Now outside Parliament. With no protection from a very busy road. @londoncycling.bsky.social

@walkwheelcyclet.bsky.social this is on NCN4 nr Maidenhead, bad enough you can’t #cycle over the bridge (not accessible for all) but now closed w no diversion signed; no date for repair. This doesn’t happen on roads @lauralaker.bsky.social @livingstreets.bsky.social @cyclinguk.bsky.social

Classic example. #roadclosed sign used when only closed to motors. #walking #cycling is perfectly accessible. We need new signage. @londoncycling.bsky.social

Today this ‘#entitled’ driver of a massive SUV drove ax my path onto #C9 without indicating, braked hard, did a u-turn and after looking at me sped off. But wasn’t remotely perturbed by his own illegal action.

So another truly dangerous #driver gets away w literal murder, killing a man #cycling, pitiful sentence even tho he'd a history of dangerous driving but was allowed to drive a mega ton truck again. It's why we need decent #cycle infra + why the justice system fails those who choose to #cycle.

There is probably nowhere that needs a protected cycle lane more than Kensington High Street, and I’d be grateful if you could take a moment to tell the Royal Borough of Kensington & Chelsea this.
