If they were to take notice of the highway code and stop at traffic lights keep off the pavements and ride with a bit of consideration for other road users they may get treated differently.
As for no insurance and road tax don't get me started.
I am surprised how many cyclists in London are well behaved though. Not all are idiots who run red lights and cycle on the pavement, just as not all bikers are wheelie popping, violent thugs . . . . .

I've called the police twice on my daily cycle commute so far this year, because car drivers didn't think they had to give way to a cycle. Whether the first one saw me or not, I don't know, but the 2nd definitely did, his line was "I was indicating, you should give way". Tosser.
I don't understand how the woman couldn't have seen a 45 year old man, in a high viz jacket being knocked off. Seriously blind, and not even an apology, or 'Are you ok???' Bitch.
This is why I also have a helmet cam on me bike. . . . . . .
