Bikesafe day - Stupid question but I need to ask...

[Coume]

Hello,

I have considering doing a Bikesafe day before doing a IAM or ROSPA but after looking at the websites ( http://www.bikesafe.co.uk/Bikesafe/surrey.html or http://www.bikesafe-london.co.uk/course ... london.php ), it looks like the training is delivered by policemen...

So here is the stupid question: if you do one or more mistakes (something against the Highway code or something that could be perceived as dangerous, etc.), could you get a fine(and even lose points on your licence) from the policeman, which is training/monitoring you???

Thanks

Ludo

I've done 2 bikesafes, 1 in Leeds and 1 in Cumbria. Both were excellent and a great way to improve your riding.

I suppose technically they could book you if you did something wrong, but I think in reallity it would have to be very very bad before they did, in fact on the second one I was activly encouraged to 'make progress' when out of posted limits, so much so I rekon any of the cars we overtook would of thought the cop was chasing me

On both occasions I was with a uniformed officer on a police bike!

Get it booked, you'll love it

I took the plunge and booked it for May 30th in Surrey.

I will post my feedback after it.

Let's hope I've got a friendly officer behind me
