    Did you not ring your bell, vigorously?

    Ah, a bell. Good idea. I've sent an e-mail to Pashley.

    I have noticed that, when I have the right of way and the red man is doing his thing for the pedestrians: if I slow down, people take this as a cue to cross. Because there are people crossing, I slow down some more. More pedestrians see me slow down and start to join the crossing. Soon, I have stopped completely at a green light, waiting for a car to come and part the waters. This has happened to me at least once at the bottom of grafton street.
    Just slow down and inch through them saying excuse me, works for me anyway.

    In other news I did hit a ped last night who ran out in front of me. He apologised. I said that was fine don't worry about it. I was filtering between cars at a low speed so no harm done to either party.

    Genius. After trying shouting and silent glaring, this third way might just work.

    you should have unleashed your fists of fury on those pedestrians while shouting, vigorously ringing your bell, carrying your laptop bag and maintaining a fast speed. apparently its quite easily done, and is common practice among investment bankers in suits...... theres extra bonus points if you somehow manage to make a woman's knees bleed..... this definitely happened before - a guy on boards saw the whole thing happen
