The reason it isn't enforced is that Cyclists can ride on the pavement in some circumstances, details quoted below. Read right through to the end, showing this still applies: "On 1st August 1999, new legislation came into force to allow a fixed penalty notice to be served on anyone who is...

No. If the limiting is under the user's control it is illegal. .

Quote: "Such notices advise officers their conduct is subject to investigation. They do not necessarily mean that any disciplinary proceedings will follow." .

What title? Lord Johnson of Sovereign Independence? Baron Partygate? .

I think Johnson and all who supported him were in the firing line from many directions. I note one senior Tory also implied yesterday that the civil service may have been putting the boot in too behind the scenes. They have far more influence than many realise and they really dislike...

He'd say Boris will be back. .

Lights are optional. If fitted they have to comply with the rules, but they don't have to be fitted to get approval. .

They seem to be rapidly becoming as essential as a smartphone with teenage boys, at circa £4K each one wonders where all the money is coming from. I can only think of the illicit drugs trade as a large enough source. Maybe time for Singapore's approach, their mandatory death sentence for any...

I am absolutely certain of it, governments don't make such fundamental policy. If they did the country would be in a far greater mess than it is already. There's three types of policy. One is the manifesto policies of a parties wishing to be voted into power, and we all know how often...

It hasn't happened in Italy. One leader of a party within their coalition government says he is in favour of it but he doesn't have the final say. And when an opposing party leader recommended the same a little while ago he described it as insane. .

I has been clarified that it was once again a Sur-ron off road electric motorcycle, not in any way an EAPC. Foot pegs, no pedals, and top speed circa 50 mph. The simplest and cheapest version the maker describes as a Off-road Dirt Bike. But we don't need to start worrying about...

As I remarked before, it's Lenny who is confused. He was replying to my comment on his inappropriate suggestion that eugenics were in play in the thread subject responses. His thesis of poverty is even more ridiculous in the context of school age teens owing and riding circa £4K off road...

That could be a graph of many things, the title or source is needed to make sense of your contribution. .

You seem confused. Offenders taking themselves out of the gene pool by their own foolish actions isn't eugenics. It's involuntary suicide. .

Welcome to the forum Arny, are you pedelec rider or wanting to be? .

I can't see any problem with your proposal Karl, it's well inside the weight rating and with the weight centrally balanced it shouldn't affect the handling. .

He apparently logged in yesterday: "Last seen Yesterday at 9:59 PM So could have been any number of reasons why his trip was interrupted, hopefully none too unpleasant. .

It's become a bit more complicated now since they have recently changed to two classes of moped, low speed 30kph/19 mph and higher speed 45kph/28mph, driving licences now necessary for both of those, the safety certificate only for the low speed cars for 14 year olds. But some licences are...

That isn't an answer to what I posted. In both of the current cases the riders were 15 so that option not open to them. Nor is it that easy at 16, since first there is the need to pass CBT with all that entails. Then there is our two part driving test, the theory side especially difficult to...

And that of course is the point, that being too restrictive leads to rebellious behaviour, which is by its nature anti-social. Many of the attitudes of those in power in Britain date back to the restrictive nature of the Victorians and we still see them in the tut, tutting nature of many of the...
