Apparently, the cycling safety lot have complained that she isn't using lights
whilst cycling at night!

They also warn that sipping coke on a bike is dangerous

Oh my good Gok - those are the least things wrong with that ad!!!!!!

Sadly there was no mention of wearing ill fitting short type capri pants with opaques
whilst riding a bike in a built up area

there is actually a law breaker in the ad

If the ad was done in the UK it is illegal to ride without a helmet

I hate that ad. For all the cash she would have got for it, she must of lost far more in potential record sales in the future!

I read this story yesterday, and it was just a handful of viewers moaning to the Advertising Standards Agency - who thankfully rejected their complaints.

I actually have to mute the TV when that ad is on- the voice just grates.

Can't say I noticed the illegalities

It's not illegal to ride a bicycle without a helmet here (although some people are trying to make it so).
I do it all the time...I hate helmets.
