the mobile telephone OFF while manipulating your motorised vehicle! Pay attention to your surroundings.

The first of many unfortunately. Not saying this is the case here but I just don't get why "some" cyclists (I cycle btw) are hell bent on cycling on the road when there is a sealed road outside of the white lines that they need to be using. Please keep left cyclists.

It's a fact that a few motorists are spending time on their mobile devices, eating breakfast and applying makeup. But that just puts the odd one or two motorists on a par with most cyclists.
Most cyclists have absolutely no idea about what is happening around them, even smashing into a parked car that's in front of them.
Do your brakes work... Maybe use them occasionally.
