Sounds positive!

Sounds like a good start.

lets's hope it sinks in!

Is this training to knock cyclists off more effectively?

20 drivers trained ........... just the other 3480 to go! Ach - shouldn't carp; good on them for getting started.

If anyone can get them to think more about cyclists and their needs, it's David. I've had the pleasure of meeting him a few times and he's probably one of the best instructors in the country.

Maybe its a way of trying to get cyclists on his side. Only time will tell/give the real reason.

Andy_R - plus one to that. David trained me to be a cycle instructor. He's a top man to do this and excellent at cutting through the conflict that sometimes arises between cyclists and drivers.

classic33 - personally I don't mind what Addison Lee's chairman's motivations might be, if it is making more of his drivers more aware of how to behave around cyclists on the road
