Do you mean the Green Cross Code?
No, I mean the Tufty Club.
I see. Don't you think that educating children in road safety issues is a
good idea?

Whatever gave you that idea?


So Chapman does not think that educating children in road safety
issues is a good idea.

I must admit I am not surprised.

This is from the guy who cannot tell us why he recommends to his
children that they wear cycle helmets - even though he *knows* they
are such a bad thing.

Mind you he thought that less than half a dozen children saying that
rode faster when wearing a helmet proved Risk Compensation - so he;s
not that bright.
