Yes, I notice that too.

The worst area of confrontation with motorbikes on my daily journey is Admiralty Arch at the end of The Mall, entering Trafalgar Square. Where the road narrows to go under the arch, there is a cycle lane. Motor bikes always use it - which they're not supposed to but which is not necessarily a problem - but often cars encroach so the lane is too narrow. Then the motorbike gets stuck and just blocks the gap, holding up all the cyclists, who would have been able to get through! It's a frequent cause of arguments in the morning.
