Does that mean all bus lanes are fair game or is habitual abuse likely to get my wrists slapped? Anyone else use them to by-pass the rush hour queues?
Generally illegal, however... Someon on the UK LJ Bikers community just got slapped with a fine because her bioyfriend rode her bike in a bus lane.
That said there have been trials to allow Motorbikes into Buslanes, as it is safer for the Bikes and don't congest the Buslanes (unlike pushbikes which are legal to ride there)
Initial results are all favourable and it looks like the practise will be nationwide in the near future.
