Protect Yourself on the Road: Laura Lee & Attorney Todd Bresney on Uninsured Motorist Coverage | In this Know Your Worth series on Radio Medium, Laura Lee joins attorney Todd Bresney of Kanoski Bresney Lawyers to shine light on a subject that affects us all—uninsured and underinsured motorist (UM/UIM) coverage.

With warmer weather bringing more cyclists and runners onto Western Cape roads, serious incidents are unfortunately becoming more common. Just on Friday, John Maytham spoke to listener Nicette Millar, who shared her harrowing story of surviving two crashes caused by reckless drivers. Her story is not an isolated one. The Pedal Power Association receives regular reports of near misses and collisions, with some cyclists even capturing evidence on onboard cameras, yet often being turned away when trying to report it to police. Over the weekend, they shared an update on one of these cases which they called “justice for cyclists,” after Stellenbosch resident Eugene van Tonder, who suffered a vicious knife assault while cycling in January 2024, saw his attacker sentenced to 20 years direct imprisonment. Neil Robinson, CEO of the Pedal Power Association, speaks to John Maytham about the challenges cyclists face and what can be done to better protect them.

Road safety takes center stage in this eye-opening episode where we tackle the often misunderstood rules of school bus safety. When those yellow lights start flashing, too many drivers make potentially deadly mistakes. We break down exactly what you need to do when approaching a school bus on various road types and why following these rules is absolutely critical for protecting our children.We uncover a concerning reality about vehicle safety technology that many drivers don't realize—while your car's sensors might detect other vehicles, older models often completely miss pedestrians. This technological blind spot creates serious risks, especially in residential areas where children may dart into the street unexpectedly. Our discussion provides practical advice for staying vigilant behind the wheel, particularly for drivers of larger vehicles with limited visibility.The episode shifts gears to explore dream cars that became nightmares for their owners. From the Mercedes-Benz CLS Shooting Brake with its endless repair bills to the eco-friendly Fisker Karma that kept mechanics in business, we reveal six prestigious vehicles that left their owners with serious buyer's remorse. Whether it's the beautiful but problematic Alfa Romeo 4C or the space-age BMW i8 that cost more to maintain than some mortgages, these cautionary tales might make you think twice before pursuing that automotive fantasy.For those seeking unique travel experiences, our "Riding the Rails" segment showcases Texas's diverse heritage railroads. From the historic Texas State Railroad to themed excursions on the Grapevine Vintage Railroad (including adults-only wine trains!), these rail journeys offer a refreshing alternative to traditional road trips.

Many modern vehicles will sound a warning when motion is detected and the seat belt is not engaged, and this can be annoying for those who willingly choose to drive without wearing a seatbelt. One can now find gadgets which can be clipped into the seatbelt receptor and to fool the system into thinking that the seatbelt is fastened as intended. John Maytham speaks to Alida Venter, CEO of Drive More Safely, to discuss why this is a bad idea. He also speaks to Mike Scriven, founder of Buckle Buddy South Africa, to find out why he is offering such a product in the first place.

Cape Town’s traffic calming policy was last updated in 2016 and at the time focused mainly on schools, using measures like speed humps and mini circles on local roads. Many communities outside these categories struggled to get interventions. The new Draft 2025 Policy keeps schools as a priority but introduces changes including annual delivery targets, allowing councillors and private funders to motivate projects, and creating limited exceptions for busier roads in areas with high pedestrian traffic. Questions remain around which traffic calming measures will be allowed, as Urban Mobility design guidelines are yet to be defined. Roland Postma and Mikhail Manuel speak to Lester Kiewit about the draft policy, its potential impact on communities, and what steps could help make Cape Town’s streets safer, more accessible, and more responsive to local needs.

On the 25th of June, our regular City Counselling guest Julie Fairey was involved in a road collision while she was biking in her local area. Fairey wrote about the close call, which she says could have been a lot worse, in a piece published in the Spinoff, as a reinvigoration of her previous advocacy around the need for road safety measures that improve how safely and efficiently Aucklanders can get around the city. As well, this week we've seen the release of the State of the City report, which compares Auckland on metrics including opportunity and prosperity, culture and experience, place and connectivity, innovation and knowledge, and resilience and sustainability. The report found that we are ‘falling behind' other cities, with the biggest emphasis placed on our poor economic productivity in comparison with similar locations. Producer Sara spoke with Julie Fairey about both of these topics, firstly by asking her what motivated her to write about her recent collision.
Coach Chris interviews Thomas Henson, a personal injury attorney specializing in catastrophic injuries and avid cyclist, who shares critical insurance and safety information that can protect cyclists and all active individuals on the roads.We discuss: • Uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage (UM/UIM) is vital but often overlooked insurance that protects you beyond just car accidents• UM/UIM coverage follows you when cycling, running, or even walking, and extends to family members in your household• North Carolina's minimum required auto insurance ($30,000) is often insufficient to cover medical expenses from even moderate injuries• Catastrophic cycling injuries can result in medical expenses reaching hundreds of thousands or millions of dollars• Detailed documentation after a cycling accident is crucial, including medical attention, police reports, witness information, and photographs• North Carolina's contributory negligence law means cyclists could recover nothing if found even 1% at fault for an accident• Safety practices like wearing helmets, using lights, and avoiding confrontational behavior protect you physically and legally• Keep detailed records of all cycling equipment purchases and upgrades to ensure proper valuation after an accident• GoPro cameras can provide valuable evidence in cycling accidents• Always seek proper medical attention after an accident, particularly for head injuries which should be evaluated by concussion specialists.

Hometown Radio 07/02/25 4:30p: Chris Siebuhr talks about road safety in Cambria
With the monsoon session of Parliament scheduled for the 21st of this month, road safety activists in the country have begun a push towards demanding more stringent legislation for automobiles, roads and highways, to ensure better safety for all road users. This is not a small concern – India has one of the highest road traffic accident rates in the world, its roads are some of the world's most deadly, and every three minutes in our country, there is a death due to a road accident. According to Union Minister for Road Transport Nitin Gadkari, every year India sees 4,80,000 accidents, which lead to 1,88,000 deaths of people aged between 18 and 45 years. Additionally, there are 10,000 deaths of children. The country loses 3% of its GDP annually, due to road accidents. Why are our roads so unsafe? Do the problems lie with road design, behaviour on the roads, a lack of implementation of laws or a combination of all these factors and more? Is the government reluctant to ensure better road safety for its citizens? Guest: Ranjit Gadgil, programme director, Parisar, which is part of the Road Safety Network, an Indian coalition of organisations working to improve road safety in the country Host: Zubeda Hamid Learn more about your ad choices.
