I'm probably going to get abused for even asking this but seeing the current story about Richmond Park made me wonder

Why is it not alright to ask the question of why cyclists do not use cycle lanes

Why do cyclists not use cycle lanes

This is not about whether Cudd was right or wrong or any of the other oft repeated failings of motorists and/or the system, just these two narrow questions

Most of you have approached this with thought for which thanks

Maybe I'm mistaken but I do get a sense that part of the dislike is a reflection of a demand for uninterrupted speed (hence the comments about cycling vs biking above)

The idea of using less-used roads to provide safer cycling routes in particular came across as a sensible proposal that would not require huge infra-structure changes
