Ban the bike

[banthebike]

Ban The Bike calls for a compulsory cyclist training, compulsory identification objects, compulsory insurance! Help us take the first step towards the solution of this issue by signing our petition.

We want cyclists to be responsible on the road, accountable for their actions and our roads safe again!

Visit our website https://www.banthebike.com to let you prove that some cyclist are causing danger on the road.

Why? Whats the issue? I have personally only found Cyclists to be a minor annoyance, nothing more. Like any other slow moving traffic, you overtake when it is safe to do so, and give plenty of room. I assume you're also starting a petition for Horse Riders and Joggers.

Are we to have walking on the pavement training as well?

Can we just ban petition threads instead? Maybe have an auto-ban script for anyone that posts a petition.parliament or change.org link within their first 100 posts?

phahahahahahaha

really?

the cyclists that will accept and agree to this are the ones who have insurance and are courteous road users.

The ones that won't are the kind of people who ride motocross track bikes on the road without helmet or any other protective gear.


ok, convince me enough and I'll sign:

According to your plans and intents, at what age does the compulsory cyclist training and insurance come in?

When I was 10 I was cycling on the road to get to my friends house, I had done my cycling proficiency at school.
when I was 14 I was cycling to my gran's 10 miles away (and generally anywhere and everywhere)
when I was 16 I was cycling to college 14 miles away
When I was 18 I was a student with a bike as my only transport.

So, when should I have got insurance?

What age should I have identification 'objects' ?
what do you mean by 'objects', number plates?

Who's going to pay?
How will this all be enforced?
Will a cyclist have one registration that applies to all his bikes? - I know someone who owns about 8 different bikes and rides each regally)

Funny how the videos on the website aren't even of cyclists causing danger to anyone else. Just overgrown man-children on bicycle shaped objects being a danger to themselves.

He's gone quiet.

Ray, I agree that it's very important that people make good on their responsibilities and pay their way.

So, your company GBR Nutrition. It was struck off for non-filing of accounts in 2014, but is still trading without a company number and without disclosing your name as a sole trader.

Can you confirm that you're registered with HMRC and that your Self Assessment is up to date, including your income from that venture?

Asking for a friend.

I have had a cyclist scrape up the side of my car while I was stuck in traffic. He cycled on without giving a fuck leaving me with the respray bill. I would have liked a number I could have claimed against.

I have to agree in London the cyclists, in the majority, are rude arrogant cunts who think the road was made for them and rules do not apply to them. Horse riders mentioned earlier are much more appreciative and polite of good manners.

That said, it's never going to happen unless the EU bring the laws in.
