Sign it?
What?
People will still park on the cycle lanes, cycle lanes will be put in squashed/shared spaces. Etc. Its money for contractors.
How do you stop women who overtake you by sharing the same lane and stressed out males who think your an easy target?
More painted cycling lanes and an overpayed for TV/print campaign to follow. Even in France you get a dicks attitude to cycling (Paris etc).
On a country road yesterday I was overtaken at 70+ within a metre of my right arm. ****-gesture, he makes to stop but decides safer for him not to.
Would this latest iniative have put him in jail for life if he had hit me?
Doubt it.
Thats the iniatitive that you need. The thing that will get people cycling. Massive punishments. The fear of new draconian punishments. Then you could have a cycle lane on a motorway and people would fearfully carefully drive round you.
Not the current range of actual punishments handed out.
