Cycling UK is aiming to equip all police forces across the UK with a revolutionary virtual reality educational film that will for the first time allow drivers to experience what’s it like to be ‘close passed’ by a vehicle.

    The film will be premiered at the Cycle Show in Birmingham and an appeal launched to raise money to provide specialist VR headsets and educational materials for police forces.

    It forms the second stage of the national cycling charity’s Too Close for Comfort campaign which last year provided forces across the country with ‘close pass’ mats to educate drivers on safe passing distances.

    1. When I was a kid and used to cycle everywhere, cars didnt have soft bits, main roads were generally 40mph, we didnt wear helmets and we didnt cry when cars went by us, I dont remember getting killed once. If they want 1.5 metres and that's the rule then fair enough. Just seems like everything these days is just way over the top.
