"cyclists stay back" stickers, tfl

[glasgowcyclist]

However an inquest has been told that a deceased cyclist had failed to observe a “cyclists stay back” sticker, as if that somehow meant they were at fault.

anyone know that case?

It's not explicitly said here but possibly this case where reference is made to the sticker's presence.

The bits from the inquest in quotes don't seem to mention the sticker, that's the journalist. The bits in quotes talks about the cyclist 'most likely' jumpng the red light which contributed to the death.

Cyclists in the asl, driver left hooks, gets out and says "I've got stickers!"

Dumbass driver doesn't even know what an asl is.

There's the bit near the end which attributes statements to the HGV driver, Mark Stoker:

He told the inquest: “I was three-quarters of the way round and then I just heard a metal noise and stopped straight away and realised what had happened.”
The vehicle was fitted with sensors to detect cyclists alongside, had an audible warning telling road users when it is turning left, and was fitted with warning stickers telling cyclists to stay back, he said.
​

It may not be the relevant case at all though.

To be fair we dont see the left hook, its possible in that SOTW video that the cyclists undertake the wagon as the lights change.

yeah, well said beano:

Cyclist "We were in the bike box!"

Neanderthal: "The what?"

Cyclists should create their own like
May use centre of lane, calm your tits.

As it's written it looks like a combination of pre-emptive victim blaming, and an attempt at a get-out-of-jail-free card for irresponsible and incompetent drivers. If TfL can't see that then they need to employ some more capable and cycling-aware staff.

Saw my first one on the back of a DHL lorry this morning. I did stay back and he did turn left.

Was he signalling?

Stickers save on replacing indicator bulbs.

 

[Hip Priest]

Was he signalling?

Yes. I would've stayed back anyway. I never filter up the inside of lorries.

I want a jersey that has "Cars Stay Back" on it.
