  • Hedingham & Chambers bus driver seems to think the painted cycle lane is adequate protection for someone riding a bike instead of a safe 1.5m. A driver awareness course should help them get this right in future.

    Can I ask what cameras you use please and are they good for night time cycling and for sound? Thanks.

      Sure, I use Cycliq Fly 12 front and Fly 6 rear. Mine are fairly old now, so newer models may be better. Both double up as decent lights. Nighttime footage is OK, but not that clear. Sound has never been overly good because of wind noise, perhaps that's to be expected.

    0:23 shows otherwise.

      ​@@bestbehavecyclist wasn't utilising the cycle lane effectively causing a closer pass - if anything, 0.5m too close as per HWC.

      @@pspr33 nope, the only person who can cause a close pass is the person passing - they have the obligation to only pass when safe whilst giving plenty of room.
      The driver failed to do this inspite of having ample opportunity to plan their overtake safely
      Cycle lane is irrelevant, presence of paint in the road doesn’t absolve the overtaking party (driver in this case) of their obligations regarding hwc.

      Wait, slow down like I do when I'm behind a bus.
