Drivers clearly need more awareness of cyclists but how is that going to happen via a driving education in preparation for a driving test.
As soon at 99% of people pass the test all the good practice goes out of the window, why would they maintain just the cyclist awareness part?
I may be a shit driver in regards to how you should drive during a test and I would fail the test if I drove as I do everyday but I am very aware of cyclists and give them room and respect but that is because I am also a cyclist who has to put up with the crap drivers not because it was mentioned in a driving test 25 years ago.
