Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!

The Cyclists and Drivers Issue

We seem of late to be getting a rather high amount of posts which end up being diverted to the the drivers-are-bad-cyclists-are-good or cyclists-are-bad-drivers-are-good debate.

HoL is far from being the only place where these issues are debated and it is an issue that warrants discussion. However, my mailbox suggests that it's not one that perhaps deserves such prominence on a local website. So what we'll try for a bit is to divert discussions here when debate on the issue threatens to take over a thread seeking to address other ground.

As a starter for 10, two links (of which I'm sure there are many others and no HoL doesn't necessarily endorse the views expressed in them ):

From Wired - 9 Things Drivers Need to Stop Saying in the Bikes vs. Cars Debate
From the BBC - Why the war between drivers and cyclists?

A note to any who contribute - please recognise that this seems to be an issue which excites heated passions. Please debate with this in mind and keep it polite and respectful.
