Re: Highway Code Review for cyclists, pedestrians and horse riders
´All well and good. Trouble was, just as I slowed, an oncoming car started signalling right, who also wanted to turn into same side road. The driver noted that I’d slowed and assumed it was for his benefit. He too gave me a wave of thanks and swung across too, right into conflict with pedestrian´. T...

Re: Traffic calming?
Solid white, so my brain sees it as 'do not cross'. But I have no idea whether it's TSRGD compliant and enforceable. It's nicely positioned to put a bike on the offside just prior to the Ryegate House entrance, with restricted view for any driver emerging. You'd want to keep left there, for a bette...

Re: Drivers woefully overestimate hands-free driver tech, study shows
On one of the long and windy and almost traffic free dual carriages in north eastern Spain I tried out the intelligent speed control, lane keeping and separation on a new Peugeot 2008. It worked very well indeed and why? Because the roads are well surfaced and marked and all the signs and technology...

Re: Oh deary me ...
The problem is once this sort of thing is aired, there is all sorts of local pressure .... Many years ago and Ditchling in Sussex (purely IMO a faux village with very few 'village people'). The locals complained about cars speeding through the village and the police set up speed traps. Who did the ...

Re: Motorcycle videos
Where I live (Catalan Pyrenees) we get hundreds of motoristas, on a daily basis. They are by and large, responsible and well mannered, and (knock knock UK bikers) almost invariably thank you for allowing them to overtake (or a right signal, shows you are aware of them).
