    As a bus driver in Brighton I can understand that cycling in the city has it problems, but as there are cycle lanes for the use of.
    The cyclists don’t use them and flout the road traffic laws on all counts which makes it very dangerous for other road users especially large vehicles such as lorry’s and buses.if the cyclists took more notice of the rules of the road there would be far less problems.
