Road groups pledge to improve cycle safety
Cayman’s cyclists have welcomed a pledge by the National Road Safety Committee to improve safety following a recent spate of collisions between cyclists and motorists.
While cyclists have long advocated for better driving conditions on Cayman’s roads, the death of Per Undheim, a keen triathlete who was knocked off his bike and killed on an early morning ride on Easter Monday, focused the spotlight on the need for road users to share the road safely.
In the five weeks since Undheim was killed there have been several serious accidents when cyclists have been struck by vehicles, including one which has left a cyclist in critical condition in hospital.
