Wasn't aware of that one, but as I have to slow down for junctions anyway, if people are stood there waiting, pausing for 5 seconds to let them cross isn't going to my ruin my day.
That's the problem with the Highway Code, it's simply best practices, and 99% of drivers only look at it once to revise for their test, and that's it. I would say the vast majority of drivers are completely unaware of most of the driving laws, let alone the guidelines in the book.
What I have noticed off the back of the recent cyclist changes though, is the usual lycra warriors now riding 3 or 4 abreast on country roads and just ignoring motorists behind trying to get past. If you honk at them to make them aware of your presence, you just get aggression from them. A lot of them seem to be on a mission to deliberately antagonise motorists.
