The council are simply saying that not being by your pedal cycle whilst on site makes you more vunerable than not being near your motor vehicle, including motorbikes, whilst on site. Therefore the pedal cyclist is exposed to more danger whilst on site.

Those operating the site by the way, do so without insurance. Covered by the council insurance, as they own the site.

On what basis? That's utterly idiotic.

Other than a pedal cycle, like a motor cycle, has no shell to protect the cyclist whilst away from the vehicle they refuse to say. Iv'e said that any type of vehicle offers the same protection if you're nowhere near it at the time. None, they disagree.

Thats why suggestions were sought with regards what to make sure is included in the demonstration of onsite unsafety.

Real-world trolling if you ask me.

That is even more ludicrous than I thought it was. Is this your council?:

No.
However, the more I think about it the more they appear to be running along very similar lines. Especially the building part(assuming nothing has changed on the video from the book).
They may be using the book as a training manual though. I'll have to check with the library department to see if they still have the book on the shelves.

I think my request has thrown them as they have yet to respond.
