The other four haven't been caught. ;-) I bet the ratio for drivers is even worse. the ratio of lawbreaking cyclists was obtained by people watching their actions. since cars are already observed by cameras and can be identified and traced, then I am sure they would be fined if they were breaking the law at the ratio you suggest of one in four. It would be a massive boost to the economy if it were true. |

I am probably on a par with the average motorist, of even better at obeying the law, because I often use ordinary bikes and electric trains too. Also, as a cyclist I am much less of a threat to other road users, unlike motorists. Maybe that is why the cops don't arrest me for sometimes using an EU compliant electric bicycle? -- .
