Will is too honest to be an MP
It's REALLY good when stories like this make the news, as it spreads the message that YOU may be next to be prosecuted for giving a cyclist a close, unsafe overtake.
Keep gnashing those teeth, gammon. Your day is coming!

I posted this on the bird site too, and it kicked off massively. Plenty of gammon came crawling out of the woodwork, only to be schooled by lots of cyclists.

@WilliamNB that’s a fairly well written article too. The headline could have included “Careless” and the rule of coving cyclists as much room as a car is not new (the guidance is), bit otherwise it’s informative to drivers.

@WilliamNB That's really good. I'm sure I'm not the only person to say this, but I've had far worse close passes than that, and been fobbed off. Hopefully this is the future.

@Cycling_Liz It seems that the tide is turning, even if extremely slowly

@WilliamNB driver in the oncoming lane must have been bricking it as well. 👀
