I don’t make a big fuss about it. Cyclists aren’t in anyway a danger to the public in comparison to the danger other road users are. Would you like to spend two hours walking around East Dulwich with me so you can show me all these cyclists on the pavement?

I don’t even own a bike.

Motorists think they are above the law. Why else would so many break it? According to speed monitoring data the *average* speed of drivers in 20mph zone is 26mph. Why is that?

Exactly - it is an unspoken rule. South Dulwich isn’t allowed. It should be East Gipsy Hill or North Crystal Palace.

Look at the plan. The cycle track is easily wide enough to take an emergency vehicle.

Here on the Southwark website. Looks quite nice. https://www.southwark.gov.uk/transport-and-roads/improving-our-streets/live-projects/street-improvements/dulwich-streets-for-people Emergency vehicles are allowed on cycle lanes so not a problem. There is a slight bend in the cycle path but it is not too severe.

I have a few friends who have GoPros and recommend. Not the cheapest option though.

Here you are talking about motorists.

Erm, in case you hadn’t noticed, you brought up motorists.

Ok that say it all really. We are getting into 15 min city conspiracy land here. You realise vaccines actually work right?

So why do so car drivers think they are above the law then? Over 90% break the speed limit on regular basis. Should the council start stencilling the roads around Dulwich explaining to drivers they need to keep to the speed limit and not kill as many pedestrians?

I have a couple of spare tickets if anyone wants them 1/2 price.

There is an AllStars at Shoreditch is quite good too. Easy to get to on the Overground line.

Same. For over a week now. Feels similar to a my last Covid infection.

There is nothing wrong with complaining about things that are causing distress. Noise pollution can be a big problem for people. The restrictions they do have at Heathrow are because of public complaints. Ultimately it is balance between cost and convenience to travellers (and profit to the airlines) verses noise pollution to residents. You can see exactly which flights are causing the problem here: https://www.flightradar24.com/51.45,-0.08/11 It is nearly always in bound Heathrow flights. You can complain about specific flights here. https://www.heathrow.com/company/local-community/noise/what-you-can-do/make-a-complaint-about-noise There is more they can do reduce the noise. Staying higher for longer before descending; raising the threshold to fly in from the West; less queuing over London; changing braking patterns; reduce late night and early morning flights.
