Make cycle awareness a core part of the driving test

the relevant Government department have provided the following response:

"Blah blah blah blah, evrerthing is fine as it is, we couldn't possibly make any realistic changes"

Defeatist, buck-passing bollocks. Signed.

?

No, they said they couldn't realistically ensure that a learner would encounter a cyclist on their practical test. Fair enough, isn't it?

I do think that learners need better education, and I have signed the petition, but I don't think its aims are particularly clear or well-worded. We all know that "cycle awareness [should be] a core part of driver training", but what specific guidance should learners be given? And for the sake of comparison, what are the other 'cores' of learning, and how are they taught? Perhaps a car-park exercise in which the instructor places some cones down (representing a cyclist) and the learner is instructed on how to pass them.
