    This is fucked and no way something like this should pass.

    Also if a cyclist is expected to wear a helmet and high reflection vest then car drivers should be required to do the same, windows should also be completely down with no music playing what so ever. If you go a cellphone or you are eating a burger or snack bar straight to jail for attempted manslaughter.

      Require cars to have a governor that limits speed, either geofenced to anywhere cyclists/ pedestrians are common, or high density, (like within a town) or make them have self driving car like ‘AI’ cameras, that limit speed when peds/ cyclists are within sight, and either alarm/ brake whenever one comes within 10’.

      Their cars and lorries also need high-vis striping, no less than 7 stripes front to back, and 3 wrapped around the body. The stripes must also be painted into the base coat, they may not be part of a wrap.

      Im thinking the equivalent would be cars have hi visibility paint. I hate cars with matt colors matching the road. Can’t even seen them without the lights on.

        Just because they are being pedantic with their proposed regulations, I suggested this up thread.
