'Offered appropriate words of advice': The roads policing unit's social media post about the incident has since gone viral, video footage showing a group ride descending into a village at close to 40mph
, which states an offence is committed if"the way they ride falls far below what would be expected of a competent and careful cyclist" and it"would be obvious to a competent and careful cyclist that riding in that way would be dangerous", with"dangerous" referring to"danger either of injury to any person or of serious damage to property".
Predictably, the video has caused much debate on social media, a retired police advanced driver, Marcus Laine, joining the discussion to defend the officers' actions, saying it was"entirely the right thing to do". Road safety campaigner CyclingMikey was also on hand to reply to people who suggested the cyclists should be fined as a motorist would be, seemingly not aware of the fact speed limits do not apply to cyclists.
