I can agree with the rationale, given the timing of the lights in Stokes Croft, which seem to encourage a high-speed getaway when they finally change. Jamaica Street is flat and straight, so 50mph is the obvious goal here after all.<br /><br />If you're unlucky enough to be a cyclist that has actually made it to the ASL you'll invariably be hooted as someone important rushes to get to the next set of lights to wait for another green light.<br /><br />Of course, if Chris parked in the middle of the road, on the dashed white lines, instead of on the double yellows a different set of rules would apply, and he'd only be bothered by the police, not by pesky traffic wardens.Quercushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16988483668908744914noreply@blogger.com
