Sounds like the driver objected to the cyclist taking primary position. I
hope the cyclist damaged his hand.

I'm sorry - what on earth is this "primary position"?

I have scoured the Highway Code and just cannot find it at all?

It's a term that psycholists use which involves cycling in the middle of the
road to stop following traffic from being able to overtake.

I believe the term originated in motorcycling driving manuals, but
unfortunately I am unable to provide a reference for this so I may
well be mistaken.

Its psycholist talk for 'I can only manage 12mph on a push bike, why
should anyone go faster'.

Dave - Cyclists VOR. "Many people barely recognise the bicycle as a
legitimate mode of transport; it is either a toy for children or a
vehicle fit only for the poor and/or strange," Dave Horton, of Lancaster
University, wrote in an interim assessment of the Understanding Walking
and Cycling study. "For them, cycling is a bit embarrassing, they fail
to see its purpose, and have no interest in integrating it into their
lives, certainly on a regular basis."

Judith, you are silly. Look back at last time you were told what it is (in this very newsgroup). Are you losing your memory?

That's because it is not there - as you have been told before. Silly of you to forget. We told you before it is in "Cyclecraft" - do you remember now, dear?

Oh wait, I remember. It is a word Judith made up and then lied about being in the OED. Judith is such a liar.

A little googling will show you that "Primary Position" is a much more widely accepted concept that "psycholists" (which barely seems to exist beyond this newsgroup).

Which part of the Highway Code refers readers (pedestrians, drivers, or even
cyclists) to "Cyclecraft"?

If the answer is "no part" in what alternative - but official - way is the
attention of the general road-user drawn to the contents (or even the
existence) of "Cyclecraft"?

If the answer is "in no official way", of what relevance is "Cyclecraft" and
how does it grant anyone the right to either ignore (and breach) the Highway
Code or to break the law on obstruction?
