Re: Yet again - Cyclist Killed in London
Let me prove a point regarding cycling. I ride my cycle 8 HOURS PER DAY in my job, to look after the vulnerable.
I abide by the 'rule's
1) I wear a Helmet
2) I wear High Vis
3) at night l use lights
4) l don't go through RED LIGHTS
5) I don't under any circumstances ride on the pavement OR go between Lorries or Vans
and l read what's on the backs of Lorries.
Cycling is healthy for you, BUT, there are other traffic on the road. Instead of stupid Boris and his Cycling Commissioner wasting OUR money on supplying lanes in MOST cyclist wont even use them
Cyclist just need exams like when new drivers are on the road. At the end of the day, IF you cant be seen, either by Vans, Lorries, Cars or Buses. Then you are risking your life.
Some Lorry companies are spending thousands on gadgets for the vehicles - but we still have cyclist maimed or killed - when will it stop
