    Report summary

    Richard Frederick PHILLIPS-SCHOFIELD fell from his cycle during a track race on 9 March 2014 and sustained unsurvivable head and chest injuries. He died in hospital on 11 March 2014; the principal concern was that ineffective procedures allowed cyclists to continue riding through the aftermath of the accident, and that formal procedures for halting races were lacking.

    Source evidence

    How this individual concern was interpreted

    PFD Monitor created a concise, searchable interpretation from the report wording shown below. The report was sent to Scottish Cycling; that does not assign responsibility.

    PFD Monitor interpretation

    Lack of formal, effective procedures for halting cycle races after an accident or track hazard

    Wider context from the report

    “From the evidence given at the inquest, both by witnesses and a video of the race, the steps taken to halt the race after the accident were ineffectual to prevent numerous cyclists riding through the aftermath of the accident where a number of competitors, including the deceased, were lying injured. I was told in evidence that there are no formal, effective procedures in the regulations of any of the organisations controlling cycle racing in the United Kingdom for stopping a race in the event of an accident or hazard on the track. It would be left to the organisers on site to stop a race in whatever way they felt appropriate. I believe that the various national cycling organisations should consider introducing formal effective procedures for halting races which would be mandatory for all races organised under their regulations. ”
