“The cyclist told the Evening Standard: 'It is ludicrous. I don’t know if
it is malicious or incompetence.'

[…]

However, Clifton was adamant that the road didn't have any markings,
adding: 'The "other side of the road" doesn't begin 'wherever my accuser
wants'.”

ROFL…

He isn’t charged with being on the wrong side of the road:

“Clifton has been charged with riding a cycle on a road without due care
and attention after officers claimed he could 'pose a danger to other road
users'”

…he’s charged with DCA… for being a danger to others.

More of this kind of police action, please.

And this comes at a time when cyclists are lauding the installation of AI
cameras to catch motorists.

Oh…the biter bit…:-)

Haha excellent news, well done to the cops for cracking down on these
law-breaking vigilante wannabe self-important dopes.

I have zero sympathy for Dave, next time mind your own business and let
everyone else get on with life.

Imagine a car driver using the defence “I drove on the wrong side of the
road because there was no marking.”
