Surely you should leave a push bike rider as much room as he gives

Where does the Highway Code say that?

It seems perfectly logical, if a car is supposed to pass a bike
leaving 6ft space no matter what the relative velocities a bike should
surely keep 6ft away from a car when performing a similar maneuver. If
push bike riders feel this is far too much, and it is OK to pass
within inches then the same must be true for a motor vehicle passing a
push bike would it not?

So you think the Highway Code does not apply to you.


Anything over a foot or so is quite enough to satisfy even the HC.
