They reported this in the local paper today, you know it’s bad when the Edinburgh evening news was taking the side of the cyclist.
But then again Edinburgh drivers think they are above the law and riot when not catered to as God emperors of the city. Every time there’s an improvement to public transport or cycling or pedestrian areas, they throw a hissy fit.
I’m sure that’s a local phenomenon, it’s not like every city everywhere claims they have the worst drivers (except the person who shares that fact about their city, who either doesn’t drive or isn’t too bad in comparison).
A braver person would claim something like “(bad) drivers are like that everywhere”, but that would mean we need to overhaul the whole transport system instead of reminding specific cities of the traffic laws.
Edinbuger here.
