- There is still a long way to go to change the behaviours and attitudes of vehicle drivers.
- This is especially for near misses that involve close passes, particularly on straight roads.
- Close passes account for 44% of all near-miss events in this study.
- Near-misses are not only a common occurrence for cyclists, but they are also preventable if other parties take different actions.
- Under-reporting of near-miss events also poses a significant problem.
