Vsevolod Plotkin @vsevolodplotkin.bsky.social · 05/02/2026I understand that I am entitled to my own opinion, as are you. Repeatedly stating that feels unnecessarily condescending and like a suggestion that one side of this discussion is dealing in mere opinion and the other unassailable facts (which in the world of social sciences sadly do not exist). 100
Vsevolod Plotkin @vsevolodplotkin.bsky.social · 05/02/2026Or how making high-viz compulsory (especially given the already high rates of high viz usage by cyclist in this country) is unlikely to be of any benefit while again acting as a disincentive to an otherwise positive for public health activity? 110
Vsevolod Plotkin @vsevolodplotkin.bsky.social · 05/02/2026However have you engaged at all with how promoting helmet usage (particularly through compulsion) can impact on ridership levels) and how this weighs up against the overall public health benefits of cycling? 100
Vsevolod Plotkin @vsevolodplotkin.bsky.social · 05/02/2026My (perhaps erroneous) impression is that you support this measure because research has shown that increased helmet usage will reduce cycling related TBI on a population level (if so, fair)? 100
Vsevolod Plotkin @vsevolodplotkin.bsky.social · 05/02/2026The goal of this proposed legislation might be admirable but it has to be evaluated in terms of it's actual outcomes which research, experience and logic suggest will be small but primarily counterproductive. 100
Vsevolod Plotkin @vsevolodplotkin.bsky.social · 05/02/2026More people pushed towards driving makes the roads more dangerous for those who continue to cycle. It means more car crashes, more asthma and lung cancer due to brake and tyre particulates, and exhaust fumes, more strokes and heart attacks due to less active lifestyles. More death, injury, illness 100
Vsevolod Plotkin @vsevolodplotkin.bsky.social · 05/02/2026Experience has shown repeatedly that such regulations disincentives cycling and in turn leads to more driving. Cycling is not zero risk but still relatively low risk (and no research suggests mandatory hi-viz would mitigate those risks). 100

The state has become so beholden to a private service provider for public service announcements, they're resorting to equivocation on responsibility for CSAM and violent misogyny on that platform rather than risk losing it. 522691
