  • A transport minister has revealed he “managed to nab quite a few cyclists” during his long police career as he was pressed over government action to tackle dangerous riding.
    Lord Davies of Gower said there were laws already in place to deal with reckless cycling and pointed out it was the job of officers to enforce them.
    Jeremy Kyle clashes with spokesperson for Cambridge Cycling Club arguing that cyclists create problems on the road and don’t pay any taxes.

    requires,another pet hate is when i am driving my car and the sign says 30 MPH for that stretch and then someone comes right upto my bumper trying to force me over the speed limit,i come down a stretch of road where there is a nasty left hand bend and the signs say 40 mph and i slow down before the sign and some idiots decide not to slow down so race past doing well over 40 mph in order to get to the bend first but are not able to see what the situation is around the bend.

    This infuriates me. There is no road tax. You do not have to sit in a car. I live on a one way street - there are cars deliberately going up it the wrong way because it is easier to get to the shops. I see cars going through red lights all the time (just up the road from the Histon Road junction shown in the video is a roundabout at the A14 - you will see drivers go through a red light every time the lights change - I got run down by one). Only a minority you will say - same for cyclists. Oh, and we are as mad at just eat and deliveroo cyclists as anybody else is.

    I have an idea. If I own two cars (I never have), I pay road tax twice, insurance twice and need to MoT test the vehicle when necessary - twice!
    If you are a cyclist and also a motorist, there is no reason why cyclists should not pay tax and get themselves insured.
    I don't see any problem.......

      The reason they will never push for taxing and Insuring bikes is that they want people out of their cars and onto bikes to make them fitter and the environment cleaner. The nhs is full of fat old people with heart, chest and mobility problems because they've spent most of their lives sat in a moving armchair.

    Perfect example of pigeon holing those your biased against….auto drivers should pay for a re-test every few years if you ask me…and a higher degree of vigilance from the testers of whose actually standing in front of them would be a start…there’s a lot more autos and the cowboy drivers far out do the total of all cyclists. Law breaking cyclists should be prosecuted in the same way as all road users…and abusers…but wrong to tar all with the same brush…and yes, I’d agree to a roadworthy test for road using cyclists and a registration and some form of insurance payment, for example those that travel into major cities would pay a higher premium than say a cyclist in the suburbs and remains within the boundary…at the end of the day WE ALL dislike roadway abusers, speedsters,cars, slow mo’s, white van bod, black taxis, buses, pedestrians and yes cyclists.

      Law breaking cyclists are NEVER prosecuted. I challenged the "police" when I was given "notice of prosecution for driving without due care and attention" - the police refused to give me the helmet cam footage of the cyclist (amongst a number of breaches of road traffic law) so I had the fabricated case thrown out. Upon further investigation it turns out the cyclist "has form" for constantly and maliciously trying to have innocent motorists prosecuted. Had I not found this out and challenged the police I would have been wrongfully prosecuted.
