Stayin’ Alive at 1.5 Campaign

Campaign focused on having a defined lateral overtaking space of 1.5 metres, in relation to cyclists, written in to Irish Law. Bicycle specific Minimum Passing Distance Laws (MPDL) are now in place in 28 US states, 2 Canadian Provences, France, Spain, Portugal, Belgium and is currently being rolled out throughout Australian states and territories.
