David Millar emphasizes the importance of fostering a culture of respect among cyclists to enhance safety, similar to the approach taken against doping. He commended the UCI's initiatives, including a yellow card system penalizing unsafe behavior. Despite acknowledging the inherent dangers of cycling, Millar believes that ongoing discussions and experimentation with rules can heighten safety awareness. He remains committed to advocating for rider safety since retiring in 2014, having previously sought leadership roles within athlete organizations.
It's never going to be a safe sport, but recurring discussions are key to keeping safety at the forefront of riders' minds.
The newly introduced yellow card system punishes riders who put the safety of the peloton at risk.
