He showed what a handler said. I'm mates with a trainer and this is how they are trained.

Of course, how silly of me to realise that that blind person can see me approaching or even hear me in an EV.. OH I'm so stupid!! I beg your forgiveness..

Also, one thing I'm not sure about. Is it only junctions we have to allow folk to cross or is it along the main roads where you would normally find crossings for pedestrians but if they choose to stand at the side of the road 100 yards away from a crossing for example, do I need to stop and...

Away from the cyclist and now the pedestrians.. Here's a situation I never thought about....

Agreed as I said above. But that's no issue for a single cyclists or a couple, but when you get a large group 2 and 3 abreast for miles and they don't give you a possibility to overtake safely it's an issue to most drivers which is coming across quite clearly. The code says, "cyclist should be...

Most don't.

I do agree Trev, but if they ride as he says then it's not much different to passing a tractor.

You have just hit the nail on the head. That is the ignorant groups I were on about. Now if they rode as you are stating then bingo job sorted. If they ride like that and leave enough room for folk to overtake one group safely then able to pull back in and wait till the next safe place to over...

Maybe a should of included "for long periods of time" without moving to the side/single file to allow the passing of other vehicles in a safe manner for all...

Just to be clear, I did not say all. I only said the ignorant ones.... Just the same as there are ignorant drivers, tractor drivers to truck drivers. There's always going to those that don't and then there are those that will and do allow other faster moving vehicles to pass safely. When driving...

As I have clearly stated in other posts that I have put on here. We all use the roads and so need to be aware and considerate to all users. This is what I personally notice on the roads that those that ride in groups do not move over into single file which had always been in the highway code to...

There is no aggression in anything I have stated. I can only state what I have observed over many years on the road. Also as someone who used to ride cycles.

You must come across a different breed of cyclist then. The first day of the change there was a report of a group of cyclist spread out across a road causing 8 mile of tailbacks.

I just hope that the ignorant folk that do ride in the middle of the lane/Road don't cause a death by holding up emergency vehicles or anyone that is trying to get help. They're likely be clueless up fron with there headphones playing tunes. I think that they should display ID and come to think...

Won't wind up really. As I said in an earlier post, horses and riders require 2 brains at work, 1 of which can be highly unpredictable and so majority of people with a brain between the ears do allow room for a horse to decide it's going to do something without input from the rider. But no doubt...

This guy makes a good point. If you ask me they should of put money back into education and put adverts back on the TV like the Green Cross Code Man.. It worked back in the days. Unlike the confusion this will cause.

This is my point. Where is the fairness of the road. Everyone who uses roads are part of the system of road users and so should be identifiable and take responsibility of their action be it cyclist, to truck driver.

Pedestrians have foot paths in majority of places for them to keep safe and such has always been the motorist responsibility to keep them safe. Where as cyclist are not allowed by law to ride on paths unless dedicated for them. So they become road users so should be registered as all road users...

I respect your views, it would be a strange world if we all thought the same way. But I'll leave it at that as the truth is no matter what any of our thoughts are we tend not to get get asked our opinions by those in power and that decide what's they think is best for our lives.. Although life...

There was a programme on tv about these a few weeks ago. When speaking to the dealer they said "we do explain that these are not legal for road use and only to be used on private land" But once they're out of the shop he's no responsibility for how they're used. So the problem there is how to...
