Have you been frightened by a dangerous overtaking manoeuvre while cycling? If so you are not alone...
One proven method of making roads safer for people on bicycles is through the introduction of Minimum Passing Distance Legislation (MPDL). The idea is very simple: drivers of motorised vehicles are required by law to provide a safe space when over-taking a person on a bicycle. A Private Member’s Bill on MPDL drafted by Deputy Ciarán Cannon may now proceed to the stage where it is debated in the parliament. Dublin Cycling Campaign and Cyclist.ie strongly support this proposal that has been developed by the Staying Alive at 1.5 group. But we urgently need your help in order for this bill to become law.
