The highway code says it's perfectly legal for cyclists to do so. The instruction for drivers making a left tuen is to look for cyclists doing that, and if there is a cyclist then they must give priority to the cyclist.

@@_Rustodian For pities sake - just be aware and forgive people their mistakes - you could see exactly what was happening here - just go with the flow instead of making a big deal out of it. Do you wonder why so many people hate cyclists? Said with good grace.

@@everyonehatesfrauditors765 I gave the facts. That is what the revised highway code says. I personally do not agree it's right. I think it's ridiculous.

​@@_Rustodian the cyclist is joining another road from a left hand junction, the van driver is already on that road. The van driver did nothing wrong on this occasion. The cyclist is just being impatient.

​@@allysoncaistor3717 The revised highway code gives priority to cyclist up the inside. The van should not be driving in the marked cycle lane unnecessarily. He even waved to apologise.
