Just seen this in the comments section on road.cc, depressing if this is true. Colchester Cycling Campaign @Makecyclingsafe Boots and a CKC on a Bike
Just got another email confirming action will be taken for a second (unrelated) close pass. A definite improvement from Gloucestershire Constabulary but we still have a long fight ahead and much more work to do if we are to improve the system & make the roads safer for everyone #RoadVictimMonth
I've come across this in a previous FOI request made to Gloucestershire Constabulary, the numbers don't make for good reading. I have submitted a further request to try and break these down further into categories such as 'close pass' and 'mobile use' etc
Bailey Ranger Stationary phone drivers are still dangerous for many reasons: Β 1) The people using their phones when stationary are very often the same people using them when moving. They only put the phone down because I caught them. 2) They are entirely unaware of people crossing the road
