Comment on Nearly 500 seriously injured in e-scooter collisions in Great Britain last year
Korhaka@sopuli.xyz 2 days agoI cycle without a motor and speed doesn’t seem to be much of an issue. Ride in the centre of the lane and it generally makes you more visible and discourages dangerous overtaking. Also gives you plenty of swerving space if someone does overtake dangerously. Learnt a fair bit of that doing a CBT for a 50cc bike.

We’ve all cycled and found the mechanical driver’s on roads who seem to think they have permanent right of way even over a cyclist, and been stood up going 15mph+ Vs the general flow of traffic makes for much less stress on both sides.
Albeit stood up going 30+mph and like I say - you need to have cojones right now with our current road system :/

Fortunately my route to work is almost entirely bike or bike/bus lane. I just hope reform don’t sell it off.
