    The really silly thing is that if they hadn't gone down Dame Court it would seem to be legal to access Dame Lane from Trinity Street

    I would have thought that mopeds weren't allowed to use it in any case as they are not bicycles

    Excuse in the court room - "There was too much clutter".

    No, worrying that you can't see the red lights.

    I don't know whether this is a poor merge on the Merc drivers part, poor road design or poor driving on my part. Regardless, he seemed blissfully unaware.

    You didnt hit him so you werent that poor.

    Designs like that are horrible because people dont seem to be capable to look in advance what they need to do in order to merge properly. Slow down a bit, speed up a bit. For them it is the poor soul already on the motorway who should accommodate them. Even when they cant.

    Merc was up to speed to merge which is normally not the case. But he should have yield to traffic on this right.

    Zip merging, traffic on lane one should leave a gap big enough to merge into, but these short merges are a nightmare for all as they force the merging car to get to a matching speed of the lane one traffic in a very short distance.
    The merging car didn't speed up enough and the can car wasn't giving him any space - not until he realised he would crash if he didn't.

    If you'd eased up a little to allow him merge, it wouldn't have got so close.

    if the merc guy had put his foot down and closed up on the flatbed, as he should have, there would be no issue. It's his responsibility not the camcar driver

    It is the responsibility of both drivers to ensure a safe merge, the merging driver must get up to speed and the driver on lane one must leave sufficient space to merge safely.

    I hadn't actually realised it was a merging lane until we got quite close. I had thought it was its own lane. I'm not that much of a dick :)
