    I completely agree. I would also add it makes no difference to travel times as you end up at junctions or lights anyway. On the few occasions I have to drive, I’ve been overtaken by cars pissed off I’m going the limit only to catch up to them for the rest of the 40 minute journey at every light. In fact, because sometimes the left lane is sometimes more empty, I’ve gone past them towards the end and I love it! Plus less use of fuel, less braking etc.

    Just need to improve public transport going around the outer parts of London, it’s very good going into central and around the inner zones but if I want to get across, it’s a pain
