Site Safety

That's very sad.

I've seen nothing on local news as yet.

Information from Mail online

Steve L has provided an update..........thank you Steve, I had heard she was hit by a car, but had not seen it confirmed so therefore did not want to add the cause . Once again it doesn't matter whose fault it was ,it is a child that has lost their little life, we all have to be more vigilant.

The same article, word for word also appears in Cornwall Live.

Apparently a car towing a caravan was involved and the child was only 20 months old. Whatever the child's family and the driver of the vehicle are going through now must be hell.

It doesn't really matter about the details of this horrible incident. The fact is we should all be aware at all times while on site, especially when driving. Most sites be they club or otherwise share the same roads with pedestrians, cyclists and traffic. The club operates a 5mph system, ok that's abused quite often, but the system is in place for everyone's safety. Kids don't need to have road sense, they're on their holidays, whereas drivers, cyclists etc do. Be aware folks, think of others.

Kiddies often have no road sense, or they forget it. We need to think for them.

I'm glad you've said that. There have been far far too many posts here in the past re kids on push bikes 'breaking speed limits' & 'going against one way systems'

+1, I wonder if some folk were ever children or have Ever known children. One of the joys of childhood is going hell for leather whilst simultaneously letting their daft out-it’s a joy to see👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Until parents and other on site cyclists set an example by not going against the one way system, what chance is there of children not doing the same
