Re: Glad I'm not a pedestrian in London

And yet statistically cyclists almost never hit pedestrians

Well - from anecdotal evidence (ie - me) I can say that's rubbish. I've never been hit by a car (although I've hit one or two!) but I've been hit a couple of times by cyclists[1]..

[1] One of them was when attempting to stop the cyclist riding straight over one of my small dogs. He found 80kg of annoyed male considerably more of a hindrance than 6kg of dog. It's about the only time I've ever been tempted to clothesline someone..
