Cyclist claims he was knocked off and wants to drum up some witnesses. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england...shire-23757876 Which all goes to convince me even more that a camera on my crash helmet is an essential tool that every cyclist should have. Such behaviour by car drivers should lead, inevitably, to prosecution and a substantial ban. A disqualification from driving for a physical assault with the fists? Would you extend it to all crimes, or just those alleged to have been committed against cyclists? Would you, for instance, impose a "substantial ban" (from driving) for criminal damage committed by someone damaging a car with a cycle-lock? Or by hurling a bicycle onto a vehicle's bonnet? And if not, why not? Probably just those where a motorist has used his vehicle as a deadly weapon in a deliberate manner. Thank you for confirming that you would impose a "substantial ban" (from driving) for criminal damage committed by someone damaging a car with a cycle-lock or by hurling a bicycle onto a vehicle's bonnet, as long as the criminal cyclist had a driving licence. Of course, a disqualification would have little effect on someone without a licence. Plenty are handed out to people who don't have licences. And your point is? I was thanking you for clarifying your own point. Have you forgotten *already*? Forgotten what? I genuinely don't know what you are going on about. |
