KNEE JERK?

I thought this rant from Andy from Fyxomatosis to be spot on and supports how most people feel about the issue.

If you didn't know already, read it HERE...

This is what Andy had to say...

CRACKDOWN ON ROGUE CYCLISTS TO IMPROVE ROAD SAFETY

Read it - digest it - take your own stance.

It's quite paradoxical this town.

We've got a past Premier bringing the worlds biggest cycling event to town, and past mayor who proposed introducing a 'white bike' scheme.

We have a current Mayor who openly describes cyclists as a pest, wishing to remove them alltogether if he had his way, and a current Premier who is passing a NEW LAW that is a reaction to an episode of statistical anomaly - actually, morepeople have been killed by being struck by lightning than a cyclist.

We should make a law for it.

Bloody lightning.

I don't disagree that reckless riding is dangerous and should be penalised, but such a vague description leaves it up to the discretion of the LAW to make their own opinion of 'what they saw'.
