Cyclists, car drivers, lorry drivers, bus drivers and ice cream van drivers should all pay maximum attention at all times when navigating our roads. but one mans 100% is not the same as the next.
The removal of distractions is a must (mobiles, ipods!, kids in the back, black windows etc) but the fact a mistake in a car is more lethal to a cyclist doesn't make cars at fault.
Just means peds/cyclists/motorcyclists take a greater risk, and if you didn't know that then i'd say your 100% attention is about as useful as a NJS langster
I agree with V in so far as the insurance should always favour the cyclist but they should bring in a standard level of cycling proficiency first. else half wit cyclists causing accidents and coming out the cars insurance will just fuel the anti cyclist feelings
Well said that man, one little niggle though, I was thinking of getting that Langster...
