Not condoning the actions of the driver, but the comment about cycle
lanes in the story from Tim Lennon, from the Richmond Cycling
Campaign:

"...on a road like this, which should probably only be used for
cycling and for local access anyway, local councils could do much
more to make their boroughs safer and more inviting."

Apart from providing the empty and unused cycle lane what exactly
else do you think should be done with council tax payers cash then
one wonders?

Absolutely nothing. Cyclists make no contribution via specific extra
taxes in order to use their vehicles on the road and are an
insignificant minority, only accounting for 1% of passenger miles traveled.
