Yes please i broke my leg because of a cyclist
If you are a grown up cyclist, don't ride on the pavement. Never disobey the lights when cycling. Please also wear safety gear. Don't try to overtake a large vehicle.
Should be laws passed on people sporting mullets. 10 years solitary for cyclists with mullets.

Hilarious! And correct!
Yes. A persoñ is killed by someone with a mechanical vehicle. Also high powered e-bicycles should be treated the same as mopeds. Insurance, number plate, MOT, road tax. Some exceed the speed of mopeds and some are as heavily built.

They already are! Speed pedelecs that have assistance over 15.5mph do require registration plate, license, and insurance
Hundreds are seriously injured? Don't believe that.
I was walking across a pedestrian crossing. My light was green, the traffic lights were red. I was halfway across the crossing when a cyclist shot through the red light nearest hitting me
Does the TV News presenter have a mullet? Forget cyclists there should be a law passes against those on TV. Sweet Jesus!! 😬
Yes!!! Please

To more policing for drivers too 🥂
Ooh, yes. Someone getting hospitalised making a tiiiiiiny dent on your BMW, so dangerous!😂
The restiction of road widths for cycle lanes result in longer journeys for ambulances, construction vehicles and wide loads generally. Cyclists have involved the country in huge expenditure with no financial or other return and no acceptance of the rules of the highway. There is no way to trace cyclist offenders. House building is held back and currently precast and prefabricated units are way behind the times and Germany is an example to research.
EVERYONE WHO USES A MAIN ROAD OR WHATEVER HAS TO HAVE, TAX, INSURANCE, AND MOT.... ALL ROAD USERS SHOULD HAVE SOME FORM OF REGISTRATION....IT'S ONLY FAIR!

dude bikes are like 400 bucks to 100
Should mullets face tougher punishment
I was driving in Leeds and cyclist jumped red light if I hit him would not be my fault but his as I was driving thru a green light so totally agree rules are rules 👍
For a bit of context, 91 cyclist were killed in Britain in 2022 alone. If you were to take into account all deaths caused by motor vehicles you would realise this is a relatively small problem. The video mentions hundreds of pedestrians are injured but that is noting compared to the multiple thousands of cyclists that are seriously injured every year.
It's pretty rare for a cyclist to kill a person so I would feel sorry for the poor soul who goes to prison for life for killing someone on a bike but I have a feeling they are trying to do this because of the new high powered Electric bikes that people are getting that can go 50 60 MPH and weigh half as much as I motorbike but I don't see how they could apply this to all bikes it would be pretty ridiculous.
Oh my days. The '70s called (because they couldn't text) and asked for their hair back.
Yes. Most definitely. Do cyclists know the meaning of one way streets ??

A lot of them aren't one way for bikes. Why do you think the punishments should be the same?

@@maskofsan1tyI think you would agree we would rather have a small low weight cyclist riding towards on a one way street than a 1.5t car or 40t tractor and trailer jam doesn't realise the difference of danger to life or injury by size and weight and logically apply those differences to appropriate punishments he just likes to hate people not like him and probably drives more dangerously than any cyclist rides but you can't reason with some people
😅 😅 😅 All groups to be maintained..... Most drivers can't change a wheel otherwise you could scrap the MOT.
All road cyclists should be at least 17, and have passed a rules of the road test. The bikes should have number plates, insurance, tax, and a road worthy certificate. Bikes want the same equality on the road as cars. This is what equality means.
No police to enforce this, UK’s got no money.
They are
Cyclist are a nuisance
How many drivers get life? Death by dangerous driving used to be 5 years..... It's very rare to hear about a driver going down for any long periods of time.... How many drivers bounce off each other every day some using phones, cooking, doing makeup..... Both sides are not innocent but drivers are far more arrogant and dangerous. Wonder why fire engines have all that cutting gear..... Oh yes to remove bodies from ncap safety cubes.
Is that a wig?
Wots with the haircut 🤣🤣🤣
So we have to pay road tax and insurance they pay nothing and put cars in danger because they get special treatment when the roads are for vehicles they can just do anything and cycle away !!! If they want to use the roads they have insurance road tax and a license plate they it’s fair !!! 🏴🏴🏴

Yep and horses, disability scooters and pedestrians walking on rural roads where there are no footpaths. On second thoughts, that seems like a stupid suggestion
Yes Cyclist, Electric scooters, motorised wheelchairs should all be taxed and liscence plated no one seems to have Green cross code manners anymore and more me me me
They should need a licence, insurance, road tax and have a registration, just like drivers. They too can cause accidents. And motor bikes need these things!

Ah yes, divert the attention from real pressing issues for petty laws instead
No. The punishment should reflect the level of risk to others of one's actions and a bike is massively less dangerous than a car.... it could kill someone but it's really really really unlikely to do so.
Whats your haircut about pal? 😂
