tbourner Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 Doctors said it would have been a different story if he had have been wearing the helmet!!! Sorry about your uncle but it's a Doctors job to say things like that, I guarantee he hasn't done any research or read any papers on it though.

Abz Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 Wrong, time to read the highway code They are quite within their rights to ride side by side (2 only) as long as the road is not busy or dangerous Me and my friend were told off for riding side by side from the cycle police while we was going down embankment on a Sunday afternoon (2 years ago). He bascially told us your not allowed to do this and its pretty dangerous because you get distracted from being in conversation and of passing cars\drains which could cause you to swerve and collided with each other. Since then I thought it was not allow! If only I knew this I could have threw the book at him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
