Such a lethal stretch of road. Cyclists are expected to leave the main lane of traffic for 62 meters before having to merge again. Perfect example of where no infrastructure would be safer than the lane. It honestly needs urgent attention. #Dublin @DubCityCouncil https://t.co/YDdxmoZRMM

Could we get something like that for the safety of our taxi drivers from #Covid_19 #crime
Anyone?
Safety tip:
When on a car journey with your children, get them to count bicycle riders on the road..
When they learn to drive, they’ll notice them easier. pic.twitter.com/leQEuHOLlQ— Safe Cycling Ireland 🇮🇪 (@SafeCyclingEire) December 11, 2019

Maybe by then cyclists will have to hold a license and pay insurance…

FIGHT!
Update:
Mandatory insurance would need to be linked to unworkable bicycle registration. BTW, I have 3rd party insurance for my bicycle, and fully comp for the car. An estimated 1 million motorists in the UK drive with no insurance. https://t.co/YZN1WuQaiY

In fairness.
German educational design channel Kurzgesagt applies infuriatingly balanced and logical reasoning to the conspiracy-theory-roach-motel that is vaccination. To wit:
Vaccines are one of our best tools to prevent dangerous diseases, but they come with side effects. So would it be safer not to vaccinate?

Train drivers should always feel safe and protected. But spokespeople from our national rail service calling north of Connolly “bandit country” is a disgraceful and unhelpful slur. @IrishRail @OCallaghanCian @donna_cooney1 @AodhanORiordain @broadsheet_ie pic.twitter.com/tRRMSR6A19
