Cyclist 'bawled her eyes out' after being cut up by bus in 'horrendous commute'

‘The moment I let these horrible experiences affect my decision to choose to cycle, the vehicles have won – I can’t let that happen. Cycling is a brilliant, eco way to get around the city and no matter how many bad experiences I have it isn’t going to stop me riding my bike,’ she added., Lauren explained that this kind of behaviour from vehicles is ‘more common than people think’ but she won’t let it push her off the road.

Lauren, from Yorkshire, says she’s normally ‘quite tough’ as she’s an experience cyclist but felt it get ‘a bit much’ during that particular journey, making her emotional. ‘But then if it’s two, three, or four, things, it doesn’t happen very often where I get emotional but [in that instance] it just all added up, and I was thinking, why am I getting treated like this for just choosing a brilliant, eco friendly way around this beautiful city? Why is this happening to me?

Tbf until they start paying road tax I see cyclists as fair game.

Mixing and mingling with large, fast-moving, essential machines on little more than 20lbs of pipes, with only a plastic hat for safety will never be safe... Modern roads are for motor vehicles.. Not pushbikes.

Cyclist and scooter riders are the biggest menace on London roads. I'm pretty sure 90% of accidents are through terrible riding and the ignoring of rules of the road. They must be regulated, insured and identifiable to authorities. ps you've got brakes, try using them.

I hope she made a written complaint.
