In primary school we had to go to the Road Safety Park to learn good habits, including hand signs for cyclists.  If your life is dependent on others not making mistakes, you should not trust them to try to read your mind, but instead learn to signal your intent.

Maybe the solution is that all cyclists need a license after completing a course at the Road Safety Park, the way all other road users need a license. 😁

That must be a Musso brand/model bicycle to be able to cause damage to the cab to warrant a holiday. 😂

The cyclist will claim he is not at fault as he's going to turn right at the junction in front so he got to change to the most right lane and taxi driver should give way since he's ahead of the taxi.

Traffic police should come out to clarify whether a cyclist should always cycle on the left and use traffic junction to cross the road or are they allow to cycle on the extreme right lane for the purpose of turning right at the junction ahead. Allowing cyclist to cycle on the extreme right lane is dangerous and should be ban for the safety and well being of all road users.

You are right.

The cyclist is right.

I hope he don't chance his cycling style.

:grin:

Change lane no need to turn head and check one.

Today taxi tomorrow king king lorry.

One less idiot on the road to worry about.

Everyday I see idiots doing stupid things.

I must disagree with you. 

We mustn't be so cavalier about human life. 

By which I mean the lives of the poor drivers who will get into trouble with our stupid laws, of course. 

The cyclists must be eliminated in a way that doesn't hurt any driver. 

Like a freak meteor or something. 

I'm completely OK with that.

It wouldn't make a Deep Impact on me.
