I’m fascinated by your life flecc. No really.
I decide at an early age that the insulting "Jack of all trades, master of none" was actually desirable in our complex modern world to be able to understand sufficiently all that affects our lives. So often claims like twenty years experience mean in practice one years experience twenty times over. Therefore I've opted for a diverse life ranging through many areas of experience. I've never hesitated to change employment and have twice chosen to drop from senior positions down to the floor level in another employment just for the experience. I also turned down directorship offers twice in my last job, simply to stay in touch with the real world.
all I ever wanted to know is how you know that these women riders are riding up the inside of stopped trucks, and are not being overtaken by them when they’re already at the junction?
I have never claimed that is the sole reason, nor that only women do it, only that it is a major cause. I see enough of common cycling practice in London to know how common that action is and have often had cyclists force past me when I'm stopped or cycling slowly at the rear of a truck nearside, including at left turn junctions. Another member posted about just this a little while ago. Men do it just as often, but they don't usually stay in that position as discussed before.
I previously drew your attention to the conditions in which cyclists find themselves on the n/s of trucks in a paragraph five of an earlier post. In that I showed that all but one condition were avoidable in advance by cyclists, and that remaining condition can so easily be immediately corrected by the cyclist. So in all conditions the cyclists could avoid the deaths caused by being on the nearside of trucks.
Therefore no matter what the cause of that main type of HGV involved accident, the rider killed has been foolish. That is why I have pointed out repeatedly that your obsession with this precise cause is irrelevant, it only matters that women need to act differently. That has been my objective each time I've posted threads on this subject.
I also invite you to read my opening post in this thread where you will see that I merely refer to women riding on the nearside of trucks, not how they got there.
