33. Duncan Dollimore. Cyclists & new Highway Code

The Highway Code is changing and we all have the chance to influence those changes.  If you ever ride a bike (or for that matter drive or walk down a street) it is worth having your say.

Duncan Dollimore, the Head of Advocacy and Campaigns at Cycling UK, explains what’s proposed, where the controversy lies, and how you can influence the new highway code before October 2020.  Too often we feel those in power make decisions we can’t influence.  This time, we can.
