One thing would make a big difference - automatic jail time for any

So the bus and pickup drivers in

incompetent moron on a bike should get a bit of compo?

The thing that would make the biggest difference is mandatory training
for cyclists - why do so many oppose it so vehemently?

Because they know they wouldn't find it easy to pass the test which would be
required after the training.
