V12man Posted October 26, 2012 Share Why does someone not invite Helen Zille to ride along on that stretch of road in the am - she has a bike - see if she is brave enough to try during commute times. My condolences to the family and friends of the deceased. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Schwynn Posted October 26, 2012 Share Wish I could join. I love that stretch of road, but know that some people drive way to fast on the narrow roads of the peninsula, not to mention buses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Frail4Life Posted October 26, 2012 Share http://1.1.1.2/bmi/cdn.bikehub.co.za/forum//public/style_emoticons/default/thumbup1.gif glad this tragedy is not falling on deaf ears and CT and rest of SA is taking note. His death has been noticed. Does anyone know who he was as they have not mentioned a name so just wondering if he was a tourist here alone?I am only allowed to say, he commuted from Fish Hoek to Work, he is from the EC.

gwhite Posted October 26, 2012 Share I see PPA are gathering along that stretch on Wednesday morning for a silent protest... Anybody know what time? Hi everyone, please diarise next Wednesday, 31 October. Come and join us in St James/Muizenberg near the site where the bus accident happened, in a silent static protest on the pavement. If you have a '1.5m' safe cycling jersey please wear it; we'll bring black armbands/ribbon. We'll bring our '1.5m' safe cycling flags and put that up as well. At this stage we are looking at doing the protest between 06h45 and 07h15. More details to follow soonest - spread the word in the meantime! Lucky Luke. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kranky Posted October 26, 2012 Share If Metrorail allow cyclists to jump on the train to avoid this section of road, at no charge of course, do you think it would help? Of course recreational cyclists might not go for this but daily commuters may be more keen. Would have to time your commute with the trains though.

andydude Posted October 26, 2012 Share A legal question - can all the evidence of GA buses ignoring the rules on this thread not be used in a criminal case to show that there is a general lack of following the road laws/rules in GA notwithstanding their "training programs"? It's definitely not isolated incidents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoLefty!! Posted October 26, 2012 Share Who is going to lay the charge?The traffic police say its not their job to police the road.SAPS says it not their job to police the roadMetro Police says its not their job to police the road Maybe we should all eat beetroot and garlic to cure our raod rage and find peace and tranquility in the soft bossom of broccholi Lucky Luke. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
