This line from the article struck a note with me:
"He said mothers on the school run were the worst offenders.
"I try not to go anywhere near a school at about 3pm.""

I used to ride a route that went by a big field that was used for a flea market on Sunday mornings. Good grief, don't EVER get between a flea market fan and their parking lot! Those people have blinders on. They see nothing but bargains before them. I used to ride 2 miles out of my way to avoid the flea market.

I'm surprised he didn't have vids of getting door'ed.
