We're still not quite sure that the truth us, although I suspect the poster makes things up to point score, and then forgets their own stories. Even more so if you try to be smarmy about it and you're the person that brought it into the conversation.

The only way a bus driver can be guaranteed to avoid the situation you've described is to remain behind the cyclist at all times and allow that one individual to dictate the pace of the bus and its passengers. This is a very common occurrence in the bus lane along the Stillorgan Rd.

Hurrache wrote: » Wait, what? Better check your online security, seems you've been hacked based on the below statement from you. Nah, I'm just messin, you weren't hacked. You were hoisted by your own petard and are still trying to excuse yourself after the weekend has passed. You don't know the speed limits of a road you use frequently (or is it that you don't drive too often, excuse the confusion).

AndrewJRenko wrote: » I can't answer the question until I understand it properly. Speed limits don't apply to cyclists on the road. So it seems that you're talking about park bye-laws, but you still haven't clarified ; 1) What park(s) you are talking about? 2) What actual rule or law you are talking about? 3) How is the rule or law communicated to cyclists - signage, or markings on the path or other? So if can properly understand the situation, then I can answer the question.

I mean, there he is, in his all-black lycra, deliberately chosen because some non-cyclist once suggested cyclists might benefit from wearing hi-viz, so now he can't ever wear anything bright, and it's sunny out, and he's sweatin' like a pig in his helmet, which he shouldn't have to wear, but how else will he take photos of people in cars?! Anyway, he's barrelin' along, and there's a car coming up behind him, and even though he could use the segregated cycle lane, there were some leaves on it last winter, so he won't. So he's taking the lane, but thinking about that bollocks on Boards who was giving out about cyclists on footpaths, and look, sure there's a JOGGER now on that cycle lane, and the blood pressure goes up again, and dips a little when he realises he can post "What about joggers on cycle lanes, eh, EH?" on boards when he gets into town, and THAT CAR IS STILL BEHIND HIM, the MURDERER, and his blood pressure shoots up again... So, yeah, I'd hate to be responsible for an aneurysm, so I overtake as soon as possible, when it's safe to do so. If the cyclist gets in front of me at the lights, I just have to do it again. But maybe I won't get stopped at the lights.

AndrewJRenko wrote: » You really didn't. You said : "All parks". What does that mean? All the parks in the country? All in Dublin? All in Dublin City Council? Are you just being obtuse or what? And yes, the nature of the signage IS significant, mainly because there's a chance that it doesn't actually exist. So please, what park(s) and what sign(s) please?
