- Bikes will solve congestion?
-
Cyclists seek better routes: more bikes means fewer cars, fewer cars means less congestion.
-
The argument is well supported by the fact that a pathetically thin strip of bike lane on Princes Bridge outperformed the general traffic lanes on Super Tuesday. [via Lockies]
- Who needs bike registration?
-
Queensland cops booked 9000 cyclists last year for traffic infringements:
Almost 59,000 Queensland cyclists have been fined for breaking road rules since 2003, but a Queensland Transport spokesman said a licensing system would be too costly and would not stop injuries or rule-breaking. "This would impose very significant additional costs on the community and government, and the benefits would be negligible," he said.
- Dangerous vehicle at 15km/h. How?
-
How can a car become dangerous when its motor is removed? Brakes and steering worked fine, by they still got a ticket for operating an "unsafe vehicle". I didn't think their video was particularly interesting (although it is funny when a bunch of bike-mounted cops ride past during the proceedings), but the legal and logical point is a good one:
"The problem for the court will be to argue that the Shared Propulsion Car can be dangerous while we all know the danger remains in the use of petrol cars."
