No oncoming traffic and good visibility gives plenty of opportunity for a safe and legal pass but this driver couldn't give the cyclist at least 1.5m of space so will be taken to task for their careless driving by the new improved N.Yorks Op Snap team.

"Concerned citizens" – my arse. "Patriots" – not one of you.
You don't care about Henry Nowak. You abuse his name. You abuse his family.
Southampton showed who you really are.
Ashamed? You don't know the meaning. 👑

131 floating bus stops in Leeds City Council area.
1 of those is where a pedestrian waiting at the floating bus stop lost his life to a motorist.
That's the stats of harm caused at floating stops in that city.

"The people of Hackney own Hackney and its time to take it back. That's why one of my first acts is to do a full investigation into who owns.. its buildings, its land, to begin getting these spaces back to the communities.. to get the basics right"

Same pretty much applies to #york yet similar attitudes prevail. York folk do know however traffic jams far worse on wet school day because some parents switch for walk/ cycle to driving.

The name “Netherlands” isn’t just a coincidence. It’s a flat country. The highest point is about 300 meters, right on the border with Germany and Belgium. Otherwise, everything is flat. You can get anywhere on an electric bike, and almost anyone can get around on a regular bike, too. I think you have to climb more elevation in the German provincial town of Wuppertal alone than you do in the entire Netherlands.

I have just joined @TheGreenParty
A lifelong socialist, I left the Labour in disgust at Starmer's dismal policies, and now feel that the reforged Green Party is where I should lay my hat
Great to be on board - some might say better late than never 😊

York Station Front Cycle Parking facilities. A good time to remind @LNER @YNYDepMayorPFC @YNYMayor of these points made back in 2018 about bike park. Review of future layout to cater for growth needs to consider cycles too! @activetraveleng yorkcyclecampaign.bike/2018/… via @yorkcycle
