I like the flowchart on this blog on when to enter an Advanced Stop Line at traffic lights.

More from the Times campaign: Cities Fit For Cycling:-

Thank you for supporting The Times Cities Fit for Cycling campaign - we are making headway, but we need your help. A parliamentary debate on the measures called for by The Times’s campaign has been scheduled for February 23. For this debate to have real impact we need as many MPs as possible to attend. Only you can make that happen: we have just two weeks to write to our MPs telling them why they should attend. Please take a moment to write via our campaign page www.thetimes.co.uk/cyclesafe We also need to spread the word and ask as many people as possible to write to their MP.

Please help by posting the link to our public page www.thetimes.co.uk/cyclesafe and forwarding this e-mail to friends, family and fellow cyclists. You are one of 23,000 people who have signed The Times Cities Fit for Cycling manifesto - this campaign has generated radio and TV coverage the length and breadth of the country as well as official backing from all quarters. But we need to keep the pressure on ministers to bring about real change. We will update you on progress in the next couple of weeks. With your help, we can make Britain's cities fit for cycling.

More from the Times campaign: Cities fit for cycling

Since launching The Times Cities fit for Cycling campaign, thousands of you have told us about cycling hazards in your area. Now we're giving you a chance to help to get them changed. We've created a map that allows you to pinpoint the exact junction, set of traffic lights, pothole or stretch of road that you would like to be improved. All you have to do is go through to this page www.thetimes.co.uk/cyclesafe and follow the five simple steps. The plan is to make this data available to local councils to help them to identify areas where they can improve and get more cyclists onto the roads. Thank you once again for your continued support of The Times Cities fit for Cycling campaign – we could not have got this far without your help. We hope we can count on your support once again.
