Tram tracks and cyclist

[HJ]

Here is a short propaganda video from TIE (Trams In Edinburgh) on how to cycle where there are tram tracks.


Well it is good for a laugh if nothing else...

Video missing?

Ops, sorry corrected now

As good as it is. surely people already know how to go across tramlines?
as far as i'm aware when the tramlines came into south london in 2000 there was no training for cyclists. and i haven't heard of a lot of issues with the tracks and cyclists. although i am aware there has been a fatality with a tram vs cyclist but not sure of how it happened.

Seems fair enough kicking up a fuss to me, there is tarmac in between tramlines that although makes it much safer than the system we have here is far harder to spot.
