British school trip: hire a bus, get a big group of chaperones, go to a museum all wearing yellow safety vests
Dutch school trip: cycle to a lake, all jump in and swim for an hour while the teacher has coffee

Using an in built touch screen when you drive is three times more dangerous than driving under the influence of alcohol or cannabis, according to a new study from the Belgian Institute for Road Safety.

Was talking last night about the depths and long history of misogyny in Australia.
This surely cannot be considered acceptable.

Shocking, given that he's going under 30mph. But how can the people in the car protect themselves against this?

Great piece from @looknorthBBC, about the horrible way the name of cyclist #EilidhCairns was used to argue AGAINST a cycle lane in @RBKC, even though she died there. Worth watching her sister @KCairns1 and @willnorman

This is a follow up article after the woman’s identity was discovered & contacted. She continues to insist she is a ‘relative’ (she has a v tenuous connection to extended family) & continues to insist that a scheme which would have saved said ‘relative’s’ life is a “stupid idea”.

The BBC London News segment goes more into the scheme's fate in the borough, and the history of local authorities blocking road safety schemes in London.

It was Marie Vesco’s family that warned me of shocking lack of justice 4 cyclists & QED: A driver who failed eye test & killed Eilidh Cairns was sent back 2 the road 2 kill Nora Gutman. Wish all police were like @SurreyRoadCops @DonnachadhMc @V0LDN @roadcc @buro9 @KatsDekker

@RBKC are you counting the dead on your streets? And injured? And the fearful? Pls let us know what your KSI limit is before taking action to make Active Transport the most efficient & desired mode of transport? Your #CleanAirDay claim is farcical.

There needs to be a full inquiry into this. It is so serious. Who knew in advance?
