You do realise this makes YOU look childish?

Do you have a point to disagree on? Do you have any thoughts at all? Or are you just a bot?

"An elderly man who was knocked down by a cyclist has died.

The 81-year-old pedestrian suffered serious head injuries after
colliding with the 22-year-old cyclist.

It happened on the pelican pedestrian crossing on the A56 Manchester
Road, Broadheath, Altrincham, next to the junction of Devonshire
Street."

There needs to be a 'causing death by reckless cycling' law.

http://www.manchestereveningnews.co....-being-1946103

And drivers never cause accidents do they?
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-suffolk-21922373

If they do, they can be prosecuted and they can pay compensation.

So can anybody, the only difference with cars is you're claiming from an
insurance company instead of a person.


Bingo.

And on whom would you rather rely when needing proven compensation?

(a) Guardian Royal Exchange,

(b) the capacious bank account of the 20-yr-old driver of a 1992
Vauxhall Nova, or

(c) the capacious bank account of a smelly 30-yr-old cyclist who hasn't
changed his clothes in two days and who, in any even, scarpered and
cannot be traced?


Since the chances of a cyclist who weighs the same as me injuring me are
virtually none, I don't give a ****.

Car insurance is to pay for damage to my CAR not me. A few people have
hit me, and I've never been damaged, funnily enough they usually hit the
car....


Prick.

But the national cycling group, the CTC, argues this [new law] is

unnecessary given that courts have used the 1861 act in the last decade

to jail two cyclists who killed pedestrians, while drivers who kill

cyclists routinely receive non-custodial sentences.


If it's the case that no drivers have been jailed in the last decade for
killing a cyclist, then I agree it is a shocking state of affairs.
However, if that's not the case, then the above argument is cherrypicking
vs. generalisation, and as such is worthless.


Routinely receive non-custodial sentences? Routinely?

http://www.4ni.co.uk/northern_ireland_news.asp?id=72412
A motorist who hit and killed a teenage cyclist while texting on her mobile
phone has been jailed for four years.

http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk...d-1560600.html
A drunk driver who was four times over the limit and speeding when he mowed
down and killed a cyclist was yesterday jailed at the Old Bailey for nine
months.

http://road.cc/content/news/73167-br...led-four-years
Two motorists whose high-speed race through Bradford at speeds of up to 80
miles an hour led to the death of a cyclist in September 2011 have each been
jailed for four years at Bradford Crown Court.

http://www.lep.co.uk/news/local/moto...eath-1-3706216
A motorist who caused the death of a cyclist by failing to stop at traffic
lights has been jailed for 20 weeks.

http://www.bikeradar.com/news/articl...s-evans-25132/
A teenage motorist from Cambridgeshire has been jailed for 21 months for
causing the death of cyclist Major Gareth Rhys-Evans.

etc etc etc.

Now we're going to be treated to a 3-day posting marathon by illiterate
cyclists, led by Professor of Mangled English Justin Van Der ****Wit, to
explain how the word "routinely" doesn't actually mean

1. A prescribed, detailed course of action to be followed regularly; a
standard procedure.
2. A set of customary and often mechanically performed procedures or
activities

In fact, it now means something completely different, the context was wrong,
the question was faulty, it's actually a rare mountain buttercup in Dutch
etc etc etc.
