Little bunch of lawbreakers aren't they? The only shame is that they weren't fine £65 each.
I think, should trolling not be your agenda (highly doubtful), if you do a google search on this
newsgroup, you'll find a large number of postings here from many cyclists (who are also motorists)
that law-breaking by *any* road user is not condoned. Indeed, if a cyclist is cycling without lights
when lights should be on, or cycling on pavements - you won't find me condoning the law-breaking. If
they get stopped by police for such offences - good.
There is a significant difference in seriousness though, when conmpared with motorists breaking the
law - it isn't cyclists who are killing 3500+ people each year on Britain's roads and injuring tens
of thousands more, it's motorists: fact.
I just wish limited police time was targetted on the ones doing the vast bulk of the killing and the
maiming - and that penalties were far more severe for those who kill when the weapon of choice is a
motor vehicle.
But what the heck, never let it be forgotten that Britain's poor beleaguered motorists have such a
tough deal... NOT.
