Car colour vs bicycle passing space study
Objective: Because anecdotal evidence indicates that the behaviour of cars (and their drivers) with respect to bicycles is highly variable, this study was undertaken to determine whether car colour correlates with the space allowed by the driver for passing a bicycle. http://www.cmaj.ca/cgi/reprint/159/12/1461.pdf Mike |

"Fig. 2: Pretty chart showing the numbers of cars of various colours whose behaviour earned them a "good" or "bad" rating." And that of the author... "Dr. Hurst is a physician with Medical Services, British Columbia Institute of Technology, and a cyclist who is only too familiar with the hazards of sharing the road with automobiles and buses." That description speaks volumes! Cheers, helen s |
