A phone app didn't send a cyclist anywhere. What happened was a moron decided not to think for themselves. At all. They didn't engage their higher brain functions, didn't think "whoa, hang on, that's the fking M25. I am not cycling on that. It's a fking motorway" and instead trundled along without a care in the world because the last thing to be encouraged these days is personal responsibility and forethought. It isn't the phones fault, the app's fault, or indeed anything else's fault beyond the tit pushing the pedals. What a colossal fking idiot.

I can't remember which motorway, it was either the 56 or 62, a whole bloody team of cyclists at the last commonwealth games was using the hard shoulder to train, until the fuzz found them.

A fine though, not often you hear of a cyclist being fined.

Cyclist obviously a total cock. BiB should have impounded bike & phone too.
