Cyclists stay back! stickers

^^ cliveo makes a valid point here about the asymmetry of road users. Bearing that in mind it occurs to me that if a million patronising and offensively worded stickers manage to save even one life then they are probably a good thing. Not a reason to stop taking against them, but maybe a reason to not be smugly dogmatic in our disdain for them.

Misguided, worth changing, but ultimately motivated by saving lives. That is worth a brief, but genuine thank you to whoever made them.

Disagree because, in getting one rider to behave more safely, the stickers will have painted cyclists as irresponsible and dangerous to thousands. This may cause some drivers to act aggressively towards cyclists.

Anti-cyclism is rampant; it should not be fuelled!
