Stay Safe On The Roads

There is a great video on YouTube:

to remind us all to drive and cycle safely at all times, particularly when in congested urban areas where there are many other road users like cyclists and pedestrians. Over the last ten years the number of cyclists on the roads has increased by 15%, and in cities cycling has increased even higher as many now choose to commute this way.

Anyone who recently bought a new bike through the excellent Cycle to Work Scheme will soon receive the CEMEX DVD called Think Ahead – Think for Everyone. It shows the tragic impact on one family after a lady died following a collision with a truck. It also gives simple reminders of how cyclists can stay safe when out on the roads.

Always stay safe, stay alert and watch out for other road users – for many of us travelling to work is the most dangerous thing we will do every day!!
