I have had several bicycle accidents over the years and they were invariably caused by motorists just not looking out for cyclists. Thankfully in my area there has been an awareness campaign for motorists since. The last time I was in an accident, I decided to play dead for a few minutes on the guy's bonnet just to make sure he'd never forget to look out for cyclists.

Yes moron... no cyclists own cars, none of them. Are you really that bloody stupid?  I own two cars and drive hundreds of miles a week, and I ride bicycles, so don't give me this "I pay taxes" crap because most cyclists own quite a few vehicles, many own businesses that pay way more in road tax than you do.

@cedricalien The best way to get quicker is to get miles in your legs. Just be aware of your surrounding when cycling and try to cycle without weaving and STAY OUT OF DRAINS. You should be fine following these rules regardless of your speed or experience.
