A 2026 UK survey reveals most cyclists have had accidents, yet many ignore safety rules and gear, fueled by misconceptions and convenience.
A 2026 UK poll of 1,000 cyclists found that over a third have had an accident or near-miss, leading 73% to take safety more seriously.
Despite this, half don’t always wear helmets, citing short trips or appearance concerns, and many skip lights, reflective gear, and other legal requirements after dark.
Misconceptions are widespread: 53% wrongly believe children under 18 can ride on pavements, 20% regularly use footpaths, and 43% didn’t know riding under the influence is illegal.
Only 48% have taken a cycling proficiency test, and 15% admitted to cycling while impaired.
Experts urge better education and emphasize that modern safety gear is comfortable and accessible.
