Government announces Road Safety Strategy, including consultations on lowering drink drive limit and introducing mandatory eyesight tests for drivers over 70
Following on from yesterday’s speculation, the government’s first Road Safety Strategy in over a decade was this morning officially published. The Department for Transport says the goal is to reduce deaths and serious injuries on Britain’s roads by 65 per cent by 2035.
The announcement includes new consultations on minimum learning periods for learner drivers, eye tests for older drivers, and lowering the alcohol limit for driving to help prevent causes of collisions.
This could see the drink drive limit lowered for the first time since 1967, the government noting the UK’s is currently “the highest in Europe” and one in six road fatalities involved drink driving.
The consultation will also “explore the use of preventative technology, such as alcohol interlock devices, and new powers to suspend driving licences for those suspected of drink or drug driving offences”.
Elsewhere, the government “will consult on introducing a 3 or 6 month minimum learning period, giving learner drivers more time to develop their skills in varied conditions such as night driving, adverse weather, and heavy traffic”. This, it is said, comes as drivers aged 17-24 represent just 6 per cent of licence holders but are involved in 24 per cent of fatal and serious collisions.
The DfT also announced a consultation on mandatory eyesight testing for those over 70, as well as developing options for cognitive testing too. It also said new measures will “target the growing problem of illegal number plates, including ‘ghost’ plates designed to fool camera systems, while also cracking down on uninsured drivers and vehicles without a valid MOT”.
Transport Secretary Heidi Alexander said: “Every life lost on our roads is a tragedy that devastates families and communities. For too long, progress on road safety has stalled. This strategy marks a turning point.
“We are taking decisive action to make our roads safer for everyone, from new drivers taking their first lessons to older motorists wanting to maintain their independence. The measures we are announcing today will save thousands of lives over the coming decade.”
Thoughts? Positive steps? What else would you have liked to see included?

"It really sucks what happened to Wout": Mathieu van der Poel on Van Aert's cyclocross crash
Mathieu van der Poel is like the rest of cycling fans, feeling sorry for Wout van Aert’s latest bad luck story. The Belgian underwent surgery at the weekend having fractured his ankle in a crash during a cyclocross race in Mol on Friday, Van Aert riding with Van der Poel and set to challenge for the victory when the fall happened.
“I was subconsciously thinking about it during the cyclocross,” Van der Poel admitted to Wielerflits. “It really sucks what happened to Wout. He’s already had so much adversity, and of course, you wouldn’t wish that on anyone. Let’s just hope that his road season preparations aren’t jeopardised.
“It just goes to show that every fall, no matter how innocent it seems, can have serious consequences.”
The crash has ended Van Aert’s cyclocross season, the Visma-Lease a Bike rider now recovering in the hope of being back to full fitness in time for the classics this spring.
Tom Dumoulin appointed Amstel Gold Race director
Just a quick bit of racing news this lunchtime, Tom Dumoulin is set to succeed Leo van Vliet as the director of Amstel Gold Race after this year’s edition. He’ll become only the third person to run the race, Van Vliet having held his post for 30 years and having taken over from Amstel Gold Race’s founder Herman Krott way back in 1996. Keep things simple, Tom… more hills and more podium pints (or half pints)…
"Why do certain MAMILs think they're too important to use the cycle path?" asks fuming driver... only to get told to have some "patience and self control" rather than "coming on Facebook to cry about it"
It’s an all-timer of the ‘people wildly ranting about cyclists on Facebook for no reason’ genre, this picture shared anonymously to a discussion board for residents of the Essex city Southend-on-Sea…
You can probably guess where this is going just from the picture. Here we’ve got a group of four cyclists riding, perfectly legally, two-abreast on a road. If anything, their positioning is probably too close to the kerb, the rider at the back on the double yellow lines. Next to the riders is a shared-use path where there are people walking and the surface looks a bit bumpy with some cracks.
So, as per the Highway Code, these riders are of course perfectly fine to stick with the road and give the cycle route a miss. Remember, while there’s no legal requirement for cyclists to use cycle lanes, the Highway Code recommends their use where it makes a journey “safer and easier”. In this case, given that this quartet are almost certainly riding faster than 20km/h (12mph) and probably a fair bit faster than that, the shared-use path with pedestrians walking, isn’t going to be the safest or easiest option.
> Why don’t cyclists use cycle lanes?
Why are we sharing the picture? Well, it was anonymously posted on Facebook by a disgruntled motorist/passenger who was so incensed by the sight of road users displaying perfectly legal behaviour that they felt the need to post three ranting paragraphs… only to get shut down deliciously by the replies.
“Why do certain MAMILs think they’re too important to use the cycle path and ride two-wide along the sea front in the road instead?” the post began. “Yes the cycle path might not suit your use but if that’s where you want to ride then that’s the rules – use the cycle lane and stop blocking traffic. If you’re not a fan of the cycle path then ask the council to change it or find a new route that better suits your purpose.”
Hmmm, as we’ve already established, no, that’s not “the rules”…
Anyway, the other members of this local Facebook page couldn’t get their heads around the ranting either and the most-liked ones are, refreshingly, mic-drop corrections of the anti-cycling frothing. Some also questioned from what seat of the car that photo was taken, after all there would be a certain irony if someone on their phone behind the wheel was taking issue with road users abiding by the law… let’s have some replies…
“Imagine having zero patience and self control, then coming onto Facebook to cry about it… over three paragraphs… anonymously […] the cyclists aren’t doing anything illegal. Keep crying.”
“Sorry, but if I am cycling at 20mph along there, which my legs are capable of, then I’m cycling way too fast for the cycle lane, but also at a speed that legally you don’t need to overtake me. So, sorry but I’ll ride where it’s most appropriate. Have a great day.”
> The Highway Code for cyclists — all the rules you need to know for riding on the road explained
“There isn’t a rule that says you have to use the cycle path if you’re a cyclist. Which might be a nuisance but c’est la vie. Besides this is a 20 zone, it’s not like you’re going anywhere quickly anyway.”
We’re not sure about the nuisance bit, but the rest was enjoyable.
“They’re not actually doing anything illegal, it’s legal to ride two up in this country. Also the cycle lane is not safe for cyclists that are keen and riding at a faster speed. Motorists, pedestrians and children constantly step into it without understanding. I’ve witnessed it first hand. Also just leave them be, they’re getting fresh air and exercise. I love cars myself but motorists also need to start seeing cyclists as human beings as well. You’d soon change your tune if someone you knew had a fatal accident [collision] because of an impatient Karen like this plonker of a motorist. Pisses me off.”

@yodhrin To be fair to UK police, and I know this certainly wouldn't apply in every case, the one time I did make a complaint against police driving, for pulling away from a stop straight in front of me without any indication, I had the superintendent of Brixton police station on the phone within 24 hours apologising and offering to send the officer round to make an apology in person and saying they would get retraining in driving skills (it's actually somewhere on this site but it was a while ago and the search engine doesn't seem to go that far back). Additionally, when I made a complaint against an officer in Battersea Park who not only accused me of swearing at a pedestrian, which I hadn't, but who was also extremely aggressive to me and rude to my wife, I again received a very swift response explaining that the officer had been disciplined, a note placed on his record, warned as to his future behaviour and ordered to undergo retraining, so my experience in this respect has been entirely positive. I should point out that in both instances I had irrefutable camera evidence of my claims, I do realise that if it was just my word against theirs, as it seems to be in the case above, the outcomes might have been significantly different.
* 'processing' > 'proceeding'
I don't think it does - just processing on without regard to the circumstances. Replace it with 'pushing' if you like - makes no difference to the point. From what I can see in the video, he'd completed the turn and had sufficient opportunity to slow - it wouldn't have taken much of an adjustment.
@Backladder Under the new hierarchy of road users we cyclists have a duty of care to pedestrians. In this instance the duty of care amounts to two things. First avoid the pedestrian. Tick. Secondly point out the error of their ways to try to improve their safety in future. Tick.
There are several things on this planet, that when I look at them, my skill crawls and bile salivates in my mouth; and Michael Gove is one of them. So perhaps my thoughts on this are biased. And I shall keep them to myself.
As someone who regularly unleashes the fruitier sections of his vocabulary on drivers who do things that put me at risk of injury or worse, I have to say I agree with Jack here, the misdemeanour is not sufficiently egregious to justify the aggression. In this situation, which one faces numerous times in a day cycling in London, I find a simple "I think you'll find it's actually my light, chap/madam" suffices and nine times out of ten it elicits a sheepish apology. If the pedestrian wants to up the ante by giving back I'm quite prepared to respond in kind, but it's not a situation that requires such immediate aggression. That said it is Michael Gove so some forms of aggression would be justified, if the cyclist had said, "Exports are down 14% and we didn't even have a small boats problem before Brexit, you idiot" I'd cheer him on.
@rjfrussell Well, now you mention it, the sound of fans cheering you on coming through the speakers would sometimes be quite nice ;-)
Generic …like virtually all new carbon road and gravel bikes. …it no longer looks like a Bianchi, nor a Specialissima. Mainstreaming in the bike industry is rife, as if everyone needs an aero race bike, despite the fact that 90% of customers don’t. …Small frame makers rejoice! Carbon is on its way out.
@mdavidford Barreling suggests he was travelling at speed whereas he had just started riding and was making a turn so his balance might not have been good enough to have slowed and adjusted his line.
Not sure what relevance what he'd just done previously has to the question.

RE Southend cyclists:
Just a quick point of information: as far as I can tell, based from snooping around on google maps, the pavement to the left is just that – a pavement, not a shared use path.
There is a bi-directional cycle track on the otherside of the parking area (off to the right of the picture provided). It’s unclear if that is the cycle path the anonymous dimwit was referring to, or if they thought the pavement is a shared path. Either way, it doesn’t change the argument – the cyclists were still perfectly entitled to use the road, and it was a perfectly sensible choice to do so.
Excellent well – argued

I always suggest these people
I always suggest these people who complain about cyclists provide the stats that cyclists significantly slow down drivers.
The comparison would be how much are they delayed in their total journey time by cyclists and then also by volume of motorists ie rush hour/school drop off/pick up times/school holidays.
We all know there is a huge difference in driving times between these.
But as a cyclist, my journey times are barely 10% longer during rush hour etc.
Better cycling infrastructure = more people cycling rather than driving = less delays for anyone who HAS to drive.
It is not rocket science.
This driver is probably still
This driver is probably still hurting about the fact that Southend removed the dual carriage way race track a decade or more ago to make the seafront environment a much more pleasent place for visitors.
There is a 5 mile cycle path running the sea side of the road for the length of the seafront (it is 5 miles). It is well used by those taking a steady plod and families/less experienced cyclists. Totally unsuitable for those riding at 12mph upward.
A large section of the seafront road is 20mph; absolutely no issues for most people and as a cyclist I often got held up on that road by cars, as they manouvered in to parking bays, that activity causes the majority of “delays” on that road.
On a sunny summers day the usual speed on that section is about 5mph!

With the government’s announcement about the Road Safety Strategy, are they looking to scrap the “exceptional hardship” loophole for drivers reaching 12 points?

What’s the point if currently a flashing indicator, apparently, only means the bulb is working. The driver can choose to go in opposite direction, and if they have a priority, be immune of any wrongdoing should that led to a crash. I have had this almost happen three times last year at various roundabouts with drivers indicating a left turn, but going straight instead.

Well that would require a fundamental change in how these things are treated. Literally a 180 degree turn.
Currently, everything you say that should incriminate you and increase your punishment is instead taken as mitigation against both.
Admitting you aren’t a safe driver should incur a higher penalty. Suggesting that care so little about anyone, even people who depend on you that you will happily put others at risk to save a few seconds or a few minutes should count against you.
Thats ignoring the fact that you don’t have the right to put others lives at risks over their right to travel safely. Thats the point that really pisses me off. Thats what it says when someone isn’t banned after 12 points. Your right to get to work easily is more important than everyone elses right to live.
I would love to see people suing when they are hurt or their loved ones killed when someone involved wasn’t banned who should have been. Its about the only thing that would make them take the idea of banning people seriously.

Typical of the Telegraph. Any policy change is for the worst if it can be argued that it will reduce profit for somebody somewhere. TBH it is scaremongering cobblers.
Most law abiding people drive to pubs to have meals maybe with 1 pint or a soft drink, or have soft drinks while their travelling companions have alcoholic drinks.
Soft drinks have much higher profit margins, so if more are sold, it is better for the pub.
A work contact once told me in the 90s that a 1000 litre container of cola concentrate, which was mixed with water in the pub dispensing gun, cost a few thousand pounds but generated product sales in the hundreds of thousands of pounds.

See below. I thought of a better argument and thought I had deleted my original comment.?
Today’s Telegraph has the
Today’s Telegraph has the claim that drug drivers should be the target rather than drink drivers. To back up this stance they (mis)use a statement that more drivers die with illegal levels of drugs in their system than illegal levels of alcohol. I checked and this stat is right but as everyone is probably shouting out as they read this, drunk drivers don’t only kill themselves. When you re-run the stats for all deaths where the incident involved a drink or drug driver, drink still “wins” easily. I am sure the Torygraph know that only too well but it doesn’t suit their argument or the views of their readers I suspect.
Every time a driver opens
Every time a driver opens their mouth to talk about cyclists at least one of the following things happens, usually more.
“Sorry, but if I am cycling
“Sorry, but if I am cycling at 20mph along there, which my legs are capable of… also at a speed that legally you don’t need to overtake me.”
Exactly, legally, but we all know 20mph speed limits are, in the view of so many drivers, a leftist, woke non-sense and a war on motorists, etc., and “common sense” is to go faster to get to that next traffic light 10s quicker than the cyclist, who will then get in front and will need to be overtaken again and doing so over and over again is so much fun. Besides, using the pejorative term MAMIL when referring to male cyclists clearly indicates general antipathy towards cyclists regardless of where they ride.

Straight out of the Sir Humphrey play book.
My take on the debate is that Lilian Greenwood is saying all the right things but committing to absolutely nothing. About half way down the debate is a statement referring to a tragedy 13 years ago. A committment was made to change the law as a result but we are still waiting.

Partly for the minute number of people who are interested, but mostly because I use links to some topics in my ceaseless battle with the DarkSide of The Force, here is my last view of PO64 AUR on 14.8.25 – same girl passenger, same 10 years absence of VED just like today, same absence of seatbelt, same absence of response from the police. The driver doesn’t wear a seatbelt either. Both of them highly identifiable due to extensive hideous tattoos

You would expect that even the hopelessly inept DVLA would have been able to work out a system for displaying ‘MOT Exempt’ on their vehicle page, since the first presentation of the V112 form at the Post Office is said to lead to the form being ‘processed’ by the PO, which means the information must be received and approved by DVLA. This omission crops up most often with taxis- there’s no means of knowing for a member of the public whether a taxi is legal when DVLA and DVSA both declare an absence of MOT.

Local Transport
Oh dear! That’s Lilian Greenwood, the one who was informed 7 months ago by my MP about BF64 TGE– the vehicle with no VED for over 4 years (admittedly not really remarkable for the VED-Evader’s paradise, Lancashire, but one where I know the address and the company Lux Developments and Electrical is listed at Companies House and runs a big page on Facebook)- back in June. Her response was ‘DVLA makes VED easy to pay and difficult to avoid’ and nothing else. The Road Safety Board is Doomed!

The higher crash rate among young drivers is caused by factors such as lack of experience and excessive risk-taking (the latter particularly applies to male drivers).
The higher crash rate amongst older drivers is due to deteriorating eyesight and longer reaction times.
