The analysis fails to find a significant effect of enacting a minimum distance passing law on the number of cyclist fatalities after controlling for differences in weather, demographics, bicycling commuter rates, state level traffic, and time variation....
Method: In an online cross-sectional survey, participants viewed 24 video clips of naturalistic passing events (external view akin to being a following driver) on urban roads in Queensland, Australia and judged distance and safety for both the portrayed cyclist and the passing driver. The passing...
PW 2152Improving cyclist safety: understanding the relationship between road infrastructure and passing distancedoi:10.1136/injuryprevention-2018-safety.224Introduction Cycling is an alternative mode of transport to motor vehicles that has numerous health and economic benefits. However, in countries with ...
Method A re-analysis of 2,355 motor vehicle passing events recorded by Walker that includes information on cyclist's distance to the kerb, vehicle size and colour, city of observation, time of day, whether the event occurred while in a bikelane and helmet wearing. Each variable was ...

The effect cyclist’s gender was also confirmed by Chuang, Hsu, Lai, Doong, & Jeng (2013), who in addition showed that cyclists’ behavior (measured according to wheel angle, speed and speed variation) influenced passing distance. Show abstract Effect of Road Darkness on Young Driver Behaviour...
The sign treatment shifted motor vehicles away from the rightmost lane positions. • The signs did not significantly affect the physical distance between bicyclists and motorists. • The signs resulted in a 2.5miles/h (4.0km/h) reduction in vehicle speeds. ...
This study examines the changes in driver behaviour (passing distance, aggressive behaviour) and negative attitudes towards cyclists, as well as cyclist numbers on the roads following the introduction of a cyclist minimum passing distance law in Western Australia in 2017. The study employs a quasi-...
To better understand the experiences of cycling on-road, this study aimed to explore the relationship between cyclists' subjective experiences and the lateral passing distance of motor vehicles. Methods An on-road observational study was conducted in Victoria, Australia. Participants had a custom ...
