During Saturday\u2019s Giro dell\u2019Emilia a car was seen on the course on a fast descent late in the race, while a delivery van was seen pulling out behind the breakaway during Coppa Bernocchi on Monday.<\/p>\n<p aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"kiosq-b\">The topic of rider safety has been prominent for some time, though particularly since Tarling\u2019s death in mid-August. In outlining the recent stakeholder consultation on pro cycling reforms, UCI president David Lappartient said that safety &#8220;is not negotiable, and it will move forward at an even faster pace than the other parts of the reform&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p id=\"elk-15a652de-c23f-11f1-b45f-bf68cd3b53a7\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"kiosq-b\"><em><strong>Subscribe to Cyclingnews for comprehensive race coverage of the UCI Gravel World Championships, alongside the final Monument of the season, Il Lombardia.

The most high profile of those caused the death of NSN Development Team rider Finlay Tarling at the Volta a Portugal, which is likely what Camrub\u00ed was referring to when he mentioned a &#8216;tragic accident&#8217;.<\/p>\n<div id=\"slice-container-newsletterForm-articleInbodyContent-4f45q2ZARKdCLhKd5TDTJ4\" class=\"slice-container newsletter-inbodyContent-slice newsletterForm-articleInbodyContent-4f45q2ZARKdCLhKd5TDTJ4 slice-container-newsletterForm\">\n<div data-hydrate=\"true\" class=\"newsletter-form__wrapper newsletter-form__wrapper--inbodyContent\">\n<div class=\"newsletter-form__container\">\n<section class=\"newsletter-form__top-bar\">\n<div class=\"newsletter-form__header\">Get The Leadout Newsletter<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<section class=\"newsletter-form__main-section\">\n<p class=\"newsletter-form__strapline\">The latest race content, interviews, features, reviews and expert buying guides, direct to your inbox!<\/p>\n<footer class=\"newsletter-form__footer \">By submitting your information you agree to the Terms &amp; Conditions and Privacy Policy and are aged 16 or over.<\/footer>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"kiosq-b\">However, sadly, that is not the only such incident, with a number of others during the recent series of Italian autumn Classics. During Saturday\u2019s Giro dell\u2019Emilia a car was seen on the course on a fast descent late in the race, while a delivery van was seen pulling out behind the breakaway during Coppa Bernocchi on Monday.<\/p>\n<p aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"kiosq-b\">The topic of rider safety has been prominent for some time, though particularly since Tarling\u2019s death in mid-August. In outlining the recent stakeholder consultation on pro cycling reforms, UCI president David Lappartient said that safety &#8220;is not negotiable, and it will move forward at an even faster pace than the other parts of the reform&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p id=\"elk-15a652de-c23f-11f1-b45f-bf68cd3b53a7\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"kiosq-b\"><em><strong>Subscribe to Cyclingnews for comprehensive race coverage of the UCI Gravel World Championships, alongside the final Monument of the season, Il Lombardia.

\u2013 Maeve Plouffe narrowly avoids being hit by driver at Tour of Britain Women<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/aside>\n<p aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"kiosq-b\">However, Pidcock reposted Campruv\u00ed\u2019s Instagram story adding: &#8220;Thankfully [Marcel Camprub\u00ed] and [Thomas Gloag] are ok. But police motorbike driving head on into the peloton mid race should never happen. These accidents must stop.&#8221;<\/p>\n<figure class=\"van-image-figure inline-layout kiosq-b\" data-bordeaux-image-check id=\"elk-0cd9ea06-c23c-11f1-ad84-8b17734c250e\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n<div class=\"image-full-width-wrapper\">\n<div class=\"image-widthsetter\">\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\">\n<source type=\"image\/webp\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/obUdwnoz7yRA3bGTQc73hB-824-80.png.webp 1200w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/obUdwnoz7yRA3bGTQc73hB-824-80.png.webp 1024w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/obUdwnoz7yRA3bGTQc73hB-824-80.png.webp 970w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/obUdwnoz7yRA3bGTQc73hB-650-80.png.webp 650w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/obUdwnoz7yRA3bGTQc73hB-480-80.png.webp 480w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/obUdwnoz7yRA3bGTQc73hB-320-80.png.webp 320w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 1000px) 970px, calc(100vw - 40px)\" \/><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption class=\" inline-layout\"><span class=\"credit\">(Image credit: Marcel Camprub\u00ed\/Instagram)<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p id=\"elk-15a6525c-c23f-11f1-9361-cd220c4d7e8e\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"kiosq-b\">The incident comes after a series of others where cars have found their way onto race courses in recent months. The most high profile of those caused the death of NSN Development Team rider Finlay Tarling at the Volta a Portugal, which is likely what Camrub\u00ed was referring to when he mentioned a &#8216;tragic accident&#8217;.<\/p>\n<div id=\"slice-container-newsletterForm-articleInbodyContent-4f45q2ZARKdCLhKd5TDTJ4\" class=\"slice-container newsletter-inbodyContent-slice newsletterForm-articleInbodyContent-4f45q2ZARKdCLhKd5TDTJ4 slice-container-newsletterForm\">\n<div data-hydrate=\"true\" class=\"newsletter-form__wrapper newsletter-form__wrapper--inbodyContent\">\n<div class=\"newsletter-form__container\">\n<section class=\"newsletter-form__top-bar\">\n<div class=\"newsletter-form__header\">Get The Leadout Newsletter<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<section class=\"newsletter-form__main-section\">\n<p class=\"newsletter-form__strapline\">The latest race content, interviews, features, reviews and expert buying guides, direct to your inbox!<\/p>\n<footer class=\"newsletter-form__footer \">By submitting your information you agree to the Terms &amp; Conditions and Privacy Policy and are aged 16 or over.<\/footer>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"kiosq-b\">However, sadly, that is not the only such incident, with a number of others during the recent series of Italian autumn Classics. During Saturday\u2019s Giro dell\u2019Emilia a car was seen on the course on a fast descent late in the race, while a delivery van was seen pulling out behind the breakaway during Coppa Bernocchi on Monday.<\/p>\n<p aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"kiosq-b\">The topic of rider safety has been prominent for some time, though particularly since Tarling\u2019s death in mid-August. In outlining the recent stakeholder consultation on pro cycling reforms, UCI president David Lappartient said that safety &#8220;is not negotiable, and it will move forward at an even faster pace than the other parts of the reform&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p id=\"elk-15a652de-c23f-11f1-b45f-bf68cd3b53a7\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"kiosq-b\"><em><strong>Subscribe to Cyclingnews for comprehensive race coverage of the UCI Gravel World Championships, alongside the final Monument of the season, Il Lombardia.
