I didn't know there was a law that said drivers have to slow down at the sight of cyclists...heathb said:...but you have to get it into drivers heads that they need to slow down when coming into sight of a cyclist.
The bottom line is motorists can do a much better job of trying to keep us safe.
I don't cover huge miles but I do ride 5 days a week to work n back in traffic on major roads and on weekends if it aint bucketing rain.heathb said:Dude you can't be a cyclist. I ride seven days a week and will cover 600+ miles a week when I'm not racing.
Do you mean this guy? http://www.news.com.au/heraldsun/story/0,21985,19924020-661,00.htmlfauxpas said:Several months ago, here is Aus, a dozen or more pedestrians were walking down a road after attending a party and a guy drove past them and wanted to show off and smoke up his tyres or fishtale up the road... He went out of control and drove over nearly all of them. Killing 3 or more and mushing up the rest.
I'm sure the one I saw on the news had more than 2 dead and both male and female. But I could be wrong...steve said:Do you mean this guy? http://www.news.com.au/heraldsun/story/0,21985,19924020-661,00.html
