Blimey Arthur, a post of yours that a, I agree with and b, makes sense.
Don't tell me there is a full moon tonight!
Anybody can jump on a bike, no lessons on road safety or etiquette, added to that there is no compulsory insurance requirement, no mot of the bike required, in fact it's only advisory that bike riders wear a helmet.
Maybe if laws were changed, not to make things difficult for cyclists but to make sure a level of competency is reached before people are legally allowed to take to the road.
Just think if motorcyclists carried on like some cyclists do there would be uproar!
