Sincere question.

I'd guess, judging by how narrow that road is, that it would have a solid line, which would mean you were not allowed to overtake. So, let's say for a minute, there was no following car, would you have overtaken them and broken the law?

Pot, kettle?

 

DUDE, please do not bring THAT much common sense to an argument of this nature! It is far more important that cyclists preserve the integrity of their image than attempt to ride a stretch of road safely for all concerned!

I went to Adams memorial ride up Klapperkop.

So sad.

 

Adam Reyneke was training in the Ficksburg area when he was struck from behind by a car and died on the scene . His parents were riding their mtb's in the same area when a motorist stopped them and told them about a car hitting a cyclist down the road . They rode there to arrive on the dreadfull scene .

As per the regulations the white line may be crossed to pass cyclists riding single file to give them at least 1m space. Provided no oncoming traffic of course. But hey this dead horse has been flogged, time to let it rest.

Since they pay for the road and the cyclist dont... just something to keep in mind. I hate it when I find cyclists riding abreast. They mostly heve a middle finger attitude towards the other road users. They are like taxis imho. I cycle but never do this.

All RSA taxpaying citizen's jointly own the roads and if you pay municipal taxes in the area like TSHWANE you probably have more right than a non Tshwane resident .That's why Gauteng residents pay toll fees and capetonians don,t

Meanwhile, the mods are probably hard at work deleting away content on some Chit Chat thread about chafing cream or something...
