Hello!


Now spring has sprung there are a lot more of us cyclists on the roads. Unfortunately this has meant an increase in fatalities with 2 in London in 24 hours last week - both cyclists were killed by lorries turning across them.


Detective Inspector Andy Rose of the Metropolitan Police Collision Investigation Unit, who's studying at London Southbank University has prepared an online survey that aims to improve understanding of how cyclists assess risk when cycling around lorries.


Rose said, "I'm looking to explore specific data with regards to cyclists and Large Goods Vehicles, although the data I obtain will provide broader information as well."


The survey is only open until 6 April 2010, so please tell every cyclist you know to take part, even if they are occasional cyclists.


Rose said, "My target audience is, obviously, cyclists, but I do not want to be too specific about the groups of people I am interested in because people might self-exclude themselves, and I do not want that to happen."


The survey is not long, or complicated and does not require any personal details.


Thanks

CHEESE ...



I mean who's ever heard of a "cheese delivery bike" in a fatal accident ?


No, never.


Far to much respect is held for them ( so very safe by default )

    • When I have more time and energy, I will look up the actual number of votes cast for each party in that election, rather than the number of seats won. I'm interested to see that you apparently  think that  Boris Johnson did a good job of "leading the country through Covid." Is your memory really that short? I won't stoop to calling Johnson and his cronies names in the way that you seem to think is appropriate for left wing politicians. At least the left wing politicians have some semblance of morals and a concern for people who aren't in some over privileged inner circle and/or raking in money for themselves on the back of an epidemic. I'm not going to open a can of worms on here  by commenting on the disgraceful so called "purge". 
    • Can’t imagine what it must be like you have your doorbell rung harshly.
    • Hi all, Wondering if anyone else in/around SE22 is also having the unfortunate luck of having Evri parcels delivered by a very rude individual? Whenever we have parcels delivered, our front gate is being slammed open and closed, ring doorbell is harshly banged (not pressed) followed by simultaneously banging on the door knocker and slamming the letter box multiple times. Someone is normally home by the time they come in the evening and never has to wait long for an answer. If we’re not home, we speak to them on the doorbell so we do find the actions of this individual unreasonable and rude.  We have tried a couple of times politely asking that they not do this but they are very dismissive and gives a passive-aggressive “have a nice day” reply.  Has anyone been able to contact Evri and successfully had any issues similar to this resolved? We have enough evidence through our doorbell footage but we are lost with what else we can do. We’ve tried asking politely but don’t want our gate or door damaged by someone who simply doesn’t care and lacks basic manners.    If anyone else is having this issue or has any advice on how we can report this, it would be much appreciated. After another dismissive reply to my concern this afternoon, I will be calling Evri tomorrow to raise a complaint. I have lost my patience with them 
    • Corbyn was unelectable - he got trashed by Boris who was a buffoon. It was a good job too because I would have hated to see Corbyn and his rag-tag bunch of far-left university politics backbenchers try to lead the country through Covid.  It is completely understandable why Starmer and the Labour Party want to purge Momentum from within their ranks and Cllr McAsh has fallen victim of that.
