I have a bit of hi-viz on me normally [back-pack, cycling top], I always wear a helmet when off-road and increasingly when on road .
But… I would be very, very angry if my employer started dictating my choices outside of work.
Frankly we are creeping towards totalitarianism on many fronts, how long before a urine test at the start of the day [for a desk job]?
Ultimately the UK has some of the safest roads in the world, to reduce casualties further would task either;
1. Massive capital investment e.g. tearing up congested, small city streets.
2. Massive inconvenience for users e.g. 20 mile an hour zones.
I drive, I cycle recreationally and I walk to work. I’m happy with the risks of all and as a pedestrian-cyclist I’d happily put up with a lot more 40mph speed limits in exchange for smoother, wider roads.
