The support you need following a cycling accident

A man who has been injured by a car driver

In Scotland cycle journeys have more than doubled since lockdown began. Whether it’s been a way to pass time with the kids, get more exercise or commute to work, many people have been enjoying the advantages of quieter roads and avoiding public transport. But now the roads are getting busier again and there are concerns for cycle safety – highlighted in a recent Give Cycle Space campaign by Cycling Scotland in partnership with Police Scotland encouraging drivers to give enough space to cyclists. As in many areas of life, accidents can happen.
