sheer numbers of morons sat in the 3rd lane from the left is shocking

Almost as bad as some of the yoof round here that are frankly baffled by the concept of cycling on the road as opposed to on the pavement[1]..

Kids cycling on the pavement I don't have an issue[2] with. But once they get big enough and experienced enough they *should* be on the road and leave the pavements to pedestrians and dog walkers[3].

A nice missile strike would recify the situation I think.

[1] "But where should I ride if I'm not allowed on the pavement" one whined to me as I wouldn't move myself and the dogs out his way.. He really didn't seem to comprehend that the road was usable.

[2] And I believe there is an explicit pernission in the Highway Code for it.

[3] It's not especially busy on the roads here except for 8:30-9am and 17:00 to 17:30. So I don't have an issue walking out into the road to give space for other people or kids. But I do object people trying to force me into the road so they can illegally ride on the pavement.
