Another very close call on Barrack Street, Perth
10 Apr, 2024 - 2 years ago - on Barrack Street Another case in point incident that demonstrates why a white line does zero to protect vulnerable road users. Riding north up Barrack Street in the early afternoon and I very nearly get cleaned up by the red Hyundai i20 and he decides to cut into the bike lane so he is not delayed by a turning car. To be fair on the driver and his passenger, they did apologise when I rode up to them afterwards (sadly a rarity in these situations).
