I was up in Holt in the autumn. How they managed that is beyond me.

“A vehicle’s registration number can be linked to other information held about the registration (eg by the DVLA) to indirectly identify the owner of that vehicle.”
The dvla already know who the keeper is but you can’t ask them who it is, so I find it all unconvincing that a photo has to be redacted.

If you want to respond to a poster, then use quote or reply.
“If we had only perfect motorists, cyclists would be safe, but then we would not need safety belts, airbags, crumple zones, crash helmets etc either.”
You are ignoring the risk control model and hierarchy.
Most cyclists have insurance.
Most cyclists have insurance.
If you want to reduce risks to cyclists in the most practical way, then you should address the driving test and the subsequent lack of retesting in an attempt to improve the woeful driving standards and the lack of observational training.
If your misapproach to risk controls was applied to driving and vehicles, there would be no black/silver/grey cars on the roads, all occupants would wear racing helmets and flame retardant suits.
Then people would question why you are addressing the problem at the PPE level ie the last point of mitigation.
“Bike lights are normally a
“Bike lights are normally a joke compared to vehicle lights so don’t feel protected by them.”
You don’t know a lot about bike lights do you.
Are you really claiming your 2 friends would have been better off with PPE as that is really victim blaming.
I note you haven’t actually asked people here what type of equipment and clothing they use but are quite happy to use the terms ‘this fraternity’ and ‘macho’ apparently directed at people here.
Your response to the mnay
Your response to the many points and posts was
“sanity at last – well said Shades!”
Hence I said
“Not prepared to respond to the substantive points made in a clear manner then.”

Any ebike going 20+mph under assistance is illegal. Of course a fit cyclist can go 25mph under their own steam.
If you are having near misses turning around cyclists, then you are not making proper observation around any pillars. You need to move your head and body around more. Have a read of this article too https://www.londoncyclist.co.uk/raf-pilot-teach-cyclists/
“I have been in touch with the MOT about the rules, but their consultations have mainly attracted input from this fraternity, who put “Macho” before safety, to change the law.”
I have no idea what that means or what groups you refer to.
Can you explain why you are going for the bottom risk control of PPE rather than say getting drivers to understand the importance of observation and how to practise that?
