Frig off! I didn't "suggest" it was. I said I don't know how the legality of them works with that section of the HTA which basically says to do the opposite of what the sharrows do.
Do you even read things or do you just see a keyword and start the sanctimonious ranting?
I'm sorry that my post is perhaps incendiary--I am a little touchy on this issue. But I was absolutely not ranting.
And frankly, I would argue you did suggest it, that's my opinion, I'm glad you clarified that was not your intent.
I disagree with your reading of the HTA , practicable does not mean "always", and sharrows are an indication that the correct place to ride is in the middle, because the right is not "practicable".
As I explained in the first post, my belief is based on the fact that the MTO's own cycling skills guidelines say that. But I'm not a lawyer, so I wouldn't trust it as a legal opinion.
