Cycle Savvy

CTC fears insurance companies are likely to use the wording of the new Code, which has recently been re-drafted, as an excuse to reduce the amount of compensation that they pay if a motorist hits a cyclist that has chosen to use a road rather than a nearby cycle facility.   CTC Campaigns & Policy Manager, Roger Geffen, told newsnet: "Cyclists have the right to choose a direct route using roads rather than the meandering, badly-designed and poorly-maintained paths that often pass as cycle facilities. This well-intentioned but highly prejudicial Highway Code rule must be changed before it's too late." The online CTC campaign to change the wording of the draft Code takes less than 2 minutes to join. To help get this changed click here
