Tfl to begin issuing fines for driving cycle lane

BBC News - Cycling: TfL to begin issuing fines to drivers in cycle lanes
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-london-61924719


Now this is one big load of 💩 again aimed at motorists in London.
I am a daily driver to work in London and I do not drive in cycle lanes or bus lanes.
What angers me is that I am will get punished if I dare to cross their lane but how about cyclists driving around me left or right like the road is a cycle lane. How about them going trough a red light? I see this EVERY day!!! It seems they do not care.
Only one who cares seems to be the corrupt UK goverment. Obviously because it is money coming to their pockets.

Time to dump their tea in the harbor, and declare your independence.

A woman cyclist with no helmet rides straight under the wheels of a lorry in Victoria and Khan brings this out. I suggest to join a motorist action group to challenge these decisions and also his ULEZ to cover all of greater london.
