LOL!
It was a mandatory left turn from that lane, so why was the bicyclist surprised when the van driver obeyed the law?
It seems he was a MGIF type, having cut up one bicyclist, and suffered accordingly when he tried a stupid manoeuvre.
Two more today- this time observed in person. Narrowish country road, busy,
two lycra clad cyclists who were clearly totally unfit / inexperienced, wobbling along two abreast at 6 mph causing delays. There was a double
white line and oncoming traffic so cars couldn’t pass safely.
We were several cars back and could see the problem.
Eventually the cars in front were able to pass.
Just as we reached the front, the wobbly pair decided they were worn out
and pulled over - no signal- into a field entrance.
