1.5m To Survive Road Safety Campaign
Would you stand on the spot with your back towards a truck as it drives towards you at 100km/h, knowing it was going to pass within a metre?
Plain Lunacy? This is an everyday occurrence for cyclists on our roads.

There are nearly 1.5 million of us riding bikes in New Zealand, yet the Ministry of Transport's 10-year road safety strategy discussion document has little to address the safety needs of cyclists. We must act now, (right now...September) if we want cycling conditions on our roads to improve in the next 10 years. This is your moment to speak out!!
Submissions close Friday October 2nd, 2009.
Take action!.....
- Vote for 1.5m To Survive (online petition)
- Read more on RideStrong's submission, or read the full press release here
- Have your say- tell us your thoughts in the forums
- If we don't have our say NOW, we'll be ignored for another 10 years.
- Forward this viral campaign to all of your cycling friends and family. Aim for at least 5!
