For the love of Dave! If you rock up after twenty other cyclists have come to a stop at a set of lights after getting there before you and you position yourself in the right hand lane of two in order to get to the front, surely, surely, you must have an inkling that:
There may be the possibility that one/two/several cyclists on your inside will be faster away when the lights change?
That moving straight in towards the kerb is going to cause, at the least, some inconvenience?
That if you're going to do that, the briefest glimpse to your left might be of some benefit?
That fitting your pannier on the right instead might just buy the rest of us enough space to avoid having our front wheels taken out by your supreme numptiness. (it currently has a streak of brake crud from my front rim running down it)?
Just so you know, anticipating the lights by half a second doesn't improve the situation in anyway whatsoever.
