Re: Cyclists who ignore the rules of the road!
Are horse riders insured to ride in the roads? Slightly off topic I know, but riders seem to have one hell of an attitude around here, a sort of ‘ how dare you ride your smelly automobile when primrose and I are out exercising...and don’t you dare drive past us at more than 1 mile per fortnight...Re: Cyclists who ignore the rules of the road!

Cyclists should have registration plates the same as cars. It's ridiculous that they are anonymous. If you are cycling on a busy road then it's no different to a scooter. You should have insurance and a reg plate. I've had one arrogant lycra lout twist my wing mirror off (even though he didn't bother using the cycle lane) and another block the road with her bike and yell at me because I looked at her in a way she didn't like (she had jumped in front of my car). When I was at Uni a cyclist followed my landlady to work to pick a fight about her driving. She thought it was unbelievable. Time for some controls to be put in place. But dream on if you think that will happen.Re: Cyclists who ignore the rules of the road!

When I was a child bicycles in my home island had to have a licence, just like those for a car. I remember issuing the licences to people when I was 11, it was great fun. It was part of my father's parish duties as he rose up the ranks in island politics.Re: Cyclists who ignore the rules of the road!

I never cycle on a pedestrian-only footpath but it's interesting to see how other parts of the World handle cycling. A quote below from this article: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-38688256
