  RIP Everton Smith. Another terrible and needless death on our roads.

  Does anyone have any more information on the cement mixer? Specifically, which company/fleet operator was it?

• #10 Petition for you all to sign

  Also encouraging/urging all those concerned with the way London is policed to 'have your say' in the Metropolitan Police Authority consultation on policing for the coming year at http://www.mpa.gov.uk/publications/policingplans/.

  Of course you'll have your own thoughts on what those priorities might be, but some suggestions could include;
  1) Increased inspection/enforcement of defective commercial vehicles/HGVs
  2) Improved collision investigation following fatalities of vulnerable road users (cyclists and pedestrians)
  3) Enforcement of speed restrictions especially in 20 mph zones
  4) Enforcement of FPN for mobile phone use while driving

  Thanks

• Road Peace Seminar 9th of November

  in General • 15 years, 2 months

  

  but please do write and encourage your MP to come along!

  Please do.

  You can find your MP here http://www.writetothem.com/, and there's a sample letter here http://www.roadpeace.org

  We want as many MPs to attend as possible. We need to let them know what needs to be done to eradicate the danger lorries pose to cyclists.

  Thanks for your help.
