While we're at it, can we tax cyclists off the road so that buses can
deliver their cargo of people as quickly and efficiently as possible? I
get held up unnecessarily more in the rush hour by cyclists than any
other group of road users, due in general to their inconsiderate use of
road space. One of these days, I'm going to remember to put a dashboard
camera in place to show just how this happens and how badly many
cyclists behave on the road.

Getting buses off the roads would leave far more space those who can afford to
drive in their own vehicles (and for cyclists and pedestrians)

Every time I visit a big town or city I'm always stuck behind a queue of buses,
each with a maximum of two people onboard, one being the driver and the other a
passenger who has probably been dead for 20 years.
