Seen in Buncrana last week. There have been an increase in fatalities in the last few years and hopefully this sign will be a reminder for both drivers and cyclists.
If only it were bigger and some drivers would take heed - personally I have found drivers seem to loath giving space to cyclists! And always wear a helmet!
I quit riding my road bike for this exact reason. I didn't want to become one of the fatalities. Most of the roads still aren't compatible with "sharing."
I hope that all the roads are capable of this distance. I wonder.
ReplyDeleteNot the kind of consideration I'm used to when out on my bike.
ReplyDelete...sharing isn't easy for some folks.
ReplyDeleteA useful sign.
ReplyDeleteHere the cyclists are 2,3 and sometimes 4 next to each other.
ReplyDeleteAnd that can be a bit complicated.

ReplyDeleteYes, this is a great sign. So many drivers don't like sharing the road, even with cyclists and pedestrians.
ReplyDeleteThe same message is going out here. Hope there are no more tragedies.
ReplyDeleteSharing the road is always a good idea, but not always honored.
ReplyDeleteI'm beginning to see similar signs here.
ReplyDeleteLet's hope so Bill, these tragedies won't stop until cyclists and motorists start showing each other more respect!
ReplyDeleteIf only people obeyed this!
ReplyDeleteIt is a problem here as well.
ReplyDeleteI like the sign.
: )
Your sign and my sign make a good pair! :)
ReplyDeleteThe Gaelic draws my eye!
ReplyDeleteGreat sign, hope it helps at least.
