The other issue here is police forces using warning letters instead of NIPs, particularly for #ClosePasses - despite good evidence from @cyclinguk.bsky.social that these disproportionately deter women from cycling.

I don't blame you. I still prefer washboard over closepasses.

#cycled to #ShepherdsBush today, all #cyclelanes GoldhawkRd/UxbridgeRd full of parked #cars. Returned down BloemfonteinRd to UxbridgeRd, traffic jam, take the lane, clearly indicating right, driver behind hoots, tries to overtake, once thru lights turning Rt on #Uxbridge, closepasses then

Protest over #ClosePasses

Yeah. My personal big frustration is that there are no safe separate bike lanes on the schoolrun. I have to put up with stuff like this while escorting kids to school.
