  • (Keeping Safe Distances from Bicycles) Bill 2014 Second Reading Speech Hon Lynn Maclaren MLC - 20 March 2014
    Road Traffic Amendment (Keeping Safe Distances from Bicycles) Bill 2014 Second Reading Speech Hon Lynn MacLaren MLC - 20 March 2014 I move that the Bill be now read a second time. Cyclists need a protective buffer when sharing roads with motorists. Current Western Australian road rules require drivers of motor vehicles to allow ‘sufficient’ overtaking distance when passing a bicycle rider. ‘Sufficient’ is an inadequate and unclear description that has repeatedly failed to protect bicycle riders. Amendments to road rules to specify a minimum distance are critical to improving the safety of bicycle riders. As specified in the Road Traffic Code 2000, a safe passing distance between a cyclist and a motor vehicle is considered to be “a sufficient distance to avoid a collision with that vehicle or to avoid obstructing the path of that vehicle.” 1 In addition, a safe distance behind a vehicle is considered to be a distance at which it “will enable the driver to stop the vehicle in an emergency with safety, and without running into the vehicle in front of him or her.”2 Legislative amendment, with appropriate education and enforcement, to mandate a minimum distance that motorists must keep from bicycle riders is currently the single most important action needed to reduce bicycle rider fatalities. There is an ethical issue when comparing dangerous behaviour by motorists to risky behaviour by cyclists. The driver endangers the cyclist, not vice versa, and it is rare for a cyclist or pedestrian to injure another road user. As reported on the ABC’s 7.30 programme last Friday night, there's no doubt who comes off second best when a car and a bike collide.

  • Drive Safe Handbook
    Drive Safe A handbook for Western Australian road users A Message from the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the Department of Transport This handbook is a comprehensive guide to the road rules that apply in Western Australia. It is written in an easy to understand format and designed primarily to help new drivers prepare for a lifetime of safe driving. If you are a new driver, this book contains the information you will need to obtain your learner’s permit. The laws explained in this book are the major ones that are contained in the Road Traffic Code 2000 and Road Traffic (Vehicles) Regulations 2014. However, drivers should be familiar with all traffic laws and a copy of the relevant rules and regulations can be viewed on the internet at www.slp.wa.gov.au or purchased from the State Law Publisher. To earn your driver’s licence will require a great deal of effort and most importantly, many hours of practical experience driving with a supervisor. Those who have already obtained their licence will still need to refer to this handbook regularly and to the Road Traffic Code 2000 to ensure that their understanding of the road rules is up to date. While a good knowledge of traffic laws will help you drive more safely, research shows that human behaviour is a factor in over 90 percent of road crashes, so it is important that the theoretical knowledge of the correct use of our roads is translated into responsible and careful driving. The big killers continue to be speeding, drinking and driving, failing to wear a seat belt and driving when tired.
