Early morning, no traffic but driver still chooses to close pass rider

Coffs Harbour, Australia

25 Aug, 2021 - 4 years ago - on Lyons Road

Dear drivers, when a rider is using the road there is NO room left in the lane for a motor vehicle to legally share it with a bicycle rider.
If drivers wish to overtake they must change lanes to pass, just like they do when passing every other slower moving vehicle, to give safe a distance to the vehicle being overtaken. This is not rocket science.

If a rider is riding in the centre of the lane, it means he has been close passed too many time by lawbreaking drivers and any vehicles wanting to overtake will have to change lanes to pass or wait until its safe to do so.
