‘his bicycle crashed into a car on the A442’

You can see at a glance the menace that cyclists pose to car drivers on this vehicular-cycling-friendly road.

























A cyclist was killed in Shropshire while riding from John O' Groats to Land's End to raise funds for wounded members of the armed forces, police said.

Arthur Platt, 37, from Lyndhurst, Hampshire, died of his injuries in hospital on Tuesday after his bicycle crashed into a car on the A442 in Telford.
