00:00When is it acceptable for cyclists to ride two abreast next to each other?
00:06A. Always. B. As long as they're not on a narrow road, busy road or bend.
00:11C. Cyclists shouldn't ride side by side, even on quiet roads.
00:15It should be C, actually.
00:17The answer is A.
00:19Is it? There you go, then.
00:21It's illegal not to wear a helmet while cycling. True or false?
00:24I would have thought true.
00:26False.
00:27OK.
00:29What is the minimum safe overtaking distance for a motorist overtaking for a cyclist?
00:341.5 metres, I think.
00:36Correct. 1.5 metres.
00:38That's right.
00:39I've been hit by a car once on a bike anyway, so I know these facts.
00:42I'm surprised about the helmet, to be honest.
00:44I thought the helmet should be mandatory, but there you go.
