Close shave in a 1.5 metre zone

20 Feb, 2020 - 6 years ago - on Princes Highway

The safe minimum passing distance in this 80 kph zone is 1.5 metres.

This is a hot spot with many speeders ignoring this rule endangering cyclist's lives.

Impatient drivers are wrongfully using the slow left lane to pass the other 2 lanes, regardless of cyclists keeping left in the kerbside lane.
