Perpignan: These cycling jerseys indicate the rules for surpassing motorists
For years, Lilian Cornelli has been traveling the roads of the corbières by bicycle, between the Pyrénées-Orientales and the Aude.And each time, this bicycle enthusiast makes the same observation: motorists are too little to respect a distance of 1.5 meters with cyclists when they exceed them.It is however registered in the highway code.And in town, the safety margin is reduced to 1 meter.
"It is not really respected.I do three or four outings per week, and each time, unscrupulous motorists border on me, confides this 58 -year -old Catalan, who often apprehends when a vehicle undertakes to double it.It becomes infernal to cycle on departmental and national roads ... Each time, they are permanent headaches, so much so that I sometimes be disgusted to cycle, and that, littlelittle one, I thought of devoting myself rather to mountain biking.»»
The same sign as on the road
C’est en voyant, lors de ses sorties, au bord des routes, des panneaux précisant cette règle que cet ancien cadre dans les spiritueux de luxe eut une idée : « Pourquoi ne pas dupliquer ces panneaux dans le dos d’un maillot cycliste ?»», confie-t-il."When he sees the panel on the side of the road, the motorist thinks about it.And if he meets a cyclist at that time, he respects the distance.But after a few kilometers, he forgets it.»»
Grâce aux maillots créés par l’entreprise Sécuvélo France, fondée il y a peu pour mettre en œuvre son idée, impossible, pour le conducteur, de passer à côté de cette règle : « Si je dépasse, 1,5 mètre»», stipule le panneau, reproduit sur ce vêtement hyperélastique.The same that we meet on the road.There is also a vest for cyclists who roll in town, indicating, this time, that we should not approach more than 1 meter.
"Since I wear it, I feel a clear improvement," says Lilian Cornelli.Others had similar ideas, but it was not the reproduction of the existing panel.The motorist will not read, in this case, what is written on the jersey.On the other hand, when it comes to the panel, it is captured, in its subconscious, by something he knows.»» Fabriqués dans une usine à Gérone, en Espagne, spécialisée dans la conception de vêtements de sport, ces maillots, adaptés aux amateurs comme aux professionnels, sont vendus 79 euros.And 35 euros for the urban model.
