Notes from 2014 conference workshop below on this issue. Your reactions, thoughts, comments?
o The group plotted examples of road user response on a graph that had axis for positive / negative motives of road users, and another for positive / negative effect on training
o As cycle instructors we need to avoid inflaming other road users but can often derive useful training outcomes by talking through with trainees after the event.
o We valued the following situations against motive and effect as follows:
Drive gives way when we don’t want – positive motive, negative effect (although can encourage children to deal with it assertively – don’t dither, take control of the situation)
Snaking – driver butts in – negative motive, positive effect
Driver turns in and cuts corner (major to minor) – negative effect
Wheelies by show-off (outside training
Driver trying to help but not helping positive motive, uncertain effect
Angry driver – mitigation – negative motive and effect (Exemplary instructor behaviour to defuse situation. Communicate without aggression)
Driver cuts in and blocks carriageway (this roads too busy etc.) – negative motive, negative effect

Formatting Help
Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.
Tips:
Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----
To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word
To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word
Embed images by entering:  That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.
* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks
1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot
> Quote text by starting lines with >

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
If you upload more than 5 files we will display all attachments as thumbnails.
