Irish Cycling Campaign @irishcyclingcmpn.bsky.social · 09/10/2026Thanks @tinydonkey yes a little messy but we've seen instances where extremely close passes can be shown on helmet-cam footage by comparing dimensions of road with/ vehicle size etc. to passing distance. Mandatory distance would likely give a clear message of what's required of people driving. 010
Irish Cycling Campaign @irishcyclingcmpn.bsky.social · 07/10/2026@tinydonkey.bsky.social you're likely correct– overtaking that's seen as dangerous by a Garda member might be prosecuted as driving without due care. There's no distance specified in Traffic Acts but surely RSA recommendations would influence how a court would view an overtaking manoeuvre. 110
