I hate doing it, though I can remember filtering miles recently when coming down M6 from Liverpool.Its a real dilemma. You just cant trust anyone, or relax at any time.I think towns are particularly bad since it all seems too acceptable and easy to do, folk get complacent.
my opinion is the cyclist is to blame since he moved into a lane from the cover of the bus without checking its safe to do so. Lucky for him he got off so light.
totally agree! i do filter but to be honest, not that much. Plus I'm not one these riders who has to get from A to B as fast as poss, as long as I'm on my bike I'm happy.
I don't think pedestrians or cyclists (which i am) should have insurance but situations like these need looking at properly and fairly and if the pedestrian/cyclist are to blame then they should be made to pay.
REHAB: hope it all gets sorted (in your favour)
