There is more of them whilst infrastructure for them is still lacking in most parts of the country. This unresearched opinion has been brought to you by liveloughlouth
Vehicle size surely has to be the major factor. Insane that the article focuses solely on speed and not mass—not to mention the poor visibility in some of these land ships.
The amount of people I see cycling these bucket bike things with kids in them I worry it’s only a matter of time someone is hit off them. I see people with kids in them and they’ve no helmets. I think they’re a great idea but not on roads in Dublin. Not all roads have cycle lanes and I’ve seen a lot of aggressive drivers. Also as the article says, I see so many people using phones while driving
The picture is funny because the cycle lane is between the luas tracks which are lethal to narrow bike tires like she has there.
Cyclists behavior on the roads is as questionable as the car drivers.
Pedestrians with no hi vis is another problem. If your shoes are on the road put on a hi vis
The numbers are so low that the year on year difference is not really statistically significant enough to draw conclusions.
I hit a grown man cyclist who broke a red light with massive noise reduction earphones on. Everything he did was wrong,cycled onto the road from the path through pedestrians.He was going faster than I was. But he was the one that went flying. Luckily he was ok but jesus
Drivers are buying bigger higher vehicles that crush pedestrians chests instead of breaking their thighs.
