@DanielGoldersUK@bphillipsonMP Isn't it "where they're needed most" that's the get out of jail free card - especially as she can define what that means.
@let_part@JENBROOK8@RoadSafetyWales Shouting at someone who isn't looking properly 50m behind you would be quite a skill, but "helping yourself to be seen" can work at all sorts of angles and distances - it's probably why that's in the HC rather than shouting.
@let_part@JENBROOK8@RoadSafetyWales Should, perhaps.....but in the meantime "help yourself to be seen" is the HC message which we may not personally agree with but shouldn't be surprised (or annoyed) if it's promoted by road safety groups.
@let_part@JENBROOK8@RoadSafetyWales Twitter isn't really designed for all those words, but there isn't just cyclist advice in the OP, or their other posts.
Agree with HC messaging or not but I don't think we should criticise those who promote any message in it whether it be a message to drivers, peds or cyclists.
@let_part@JENBROOK8@RoadSafetyWales If everyone were honest we wouldn't have to lock our doors, but it's good advice that we do - and I do but have been burgled.
Whether we follow the HC's message on clothing is up to us but its aim is to promote road safety so I don't think we should be criticising its promotion.
@RandomOriginals@gartdict@francesca_kms I would suggest that her understanding of the HC is somewhat limited if she either doesn't know about Rule 67 or does know and just ignores it!
@RandomOriginals@gartdict@francesca_kms I'm merely quoting the Highway Code which is the real order of the day.
It's quite apparent that the person posting that video wasn't following Rule 67, the exact wording of which can be found below.

@RandomOriginals@gartdict@francesca_kms My point is that Rule 67 doesn't include the words "except when filtering"
It just says leave 1m when passing parked vehicles.
@SaferRoadsYorks@stephenhitche11@DaveReidReading@Budgiekiller@Bikery1966 If the outermost rider is near enough to the white line they can make it impossible for a Transit to pass safely.
You tell us that a driver could clear that rider by 2m but won't tell us how close to the line you think that rider is for you to have made that assessment.
