Campaign to eliminate Death By HGV. Challenging industry, policy & justice. Born of the death of 30yr old Eilidh Jake Cairns, hit by tipper in 2009. #VisionZero
British school trip: hire a bus, get a big group of chaperones, go to a museum all wearing yellow safety vests
Dutch school trip: cycle to a lake, all jump in and swim for an hour while the teacher has coffee
Using an in built touch screen when you drive is three times more dangerous than driving under the influence of alcohol or cannabis, according to a new study from the Belgian Institute for Road Safety.

@StopKillingCycl Justice system is wholly inadequate in dealing with road death and injury. Nothing has changed since the death of Eilidh Cairns run down from behind in 2009; the HGV driver with defective vision recd a £250 fine. @cyclingsilk#nojustice
@cycleoptic @TfL@RBKC@StopKillingCycl@willnorman Any flowers on #ghostbike for Eilidh’s anniversary? Cant get there this yr. Honouring her by playing in snow. She snowboarded on Hampstead Heath the week she was snatched from this world. Thqu to kind & compassionate staff member at RBKC who re-sprayed bike & replaced plaque. 🙏🏽

Was talking last night about the depths and long history of misogyny in Australia.
This surely cannot be considered acceptable.

Great piece from @looknorthBBC, about the horrible way the name of cyclist #EilidhCairns was used to argue AGAINST a cycle lane in @RBKC, even though she died there. Worth watching her sister @KCairns1 and @willnorman
