Bring bike riders into line

-

More 80,000 people have signed a petition calling for all Australian cyclists to be made to ride in a single file, rather than the current law that allows them to ride two across

I’m sure I could have found a good gif for this but they aren’t allowing it, ha ha. Elliot Menzies

Where do I sign? Kerim Sijercic

It’s two abreast not two across. Single file is all they should have, but sadly it’ll never happen. Scott Graham

Where’s the petition? Samantha Krause

100% agree Kylie Maree

Makes no difference. They just ride on the line anyway. Mathew Potter

When you ride two abreast or more you potentiall­y become a speed hump. Clint Jackson

When I got my licence I’m sure it was single file then. Stephen Butler

In Adelaide it’s the law we were brought up to ride single breast. It works. Norma Stevenson

They don’t need to be having a chat while they are riding. Shane Foott

Single file. Meredith Burgoyne

And registrati­on. Ron Heffernan

I’ll sign it. Tracee McAuliffe

People! It is law. Two abreast is safer for the rider, can be seen easier and if you think about it the line of riders will be twice as long. They have as much right to the road as any other vehicle. As long as everyone, including riders, knows and obeys the law. Geoff Cooper

Absolutely. Pretty bloody simple. Mick Taubert

Yes please. They don’t need to ride two abreast. Sandra Grills

I’ll sign the petition . . . no worries! Wendy Ruby

Single file, great. Cheryl Ferguson

Agree. Luisa Kostikidis
