From Jodi Heckel’s article in today’s News-Gazette:
The cities of Champaign and Urbana are collaborating on a bicycle safety video that will provide information to both cyclists and drivers on the proper ways to deal with various traffic scenarios.
They are working with a bicycle safety consultant with the League of Illinois Bicyclists, Donnie Miller, who has done bicycle safety training in Champaign-Urbana before. The cost of making the video is about $1,200.
It’ll come out in the fall, and it sounds like the video’s release will be followed with increased enforcement efforts for bicycle traffic laws a few months later. Thanks for the detailed report, Ms. Heckel.
