• Cyclists Stay Back! That sticker appearing on lorries a lot - what does it mean?!

    It means the lorry company has decided the best way to avoid incidents between it's drivers and cyclists is to blame the cyclists rather than give drivers any form of awareness training.

    Nonsense. These stickers give cyclists good advice. The more we can spread the word that people shouldn't go down the left side of high-sided vehicles, the better. They don't blame cyclists at all, they merely aim to prevent serious crashes.

    Needless to say, drivers sometimes overtake cyclists injudiciously and turn across them.

    Both of these sides are covered in the excellent 'both sides' leaflet, which has now been around for about ten years and won't have to be re-designed.
