Hypothetical law change? Lorry on bike: lorry's fault. Bike on ped: bike's fault

Thanks for quoting from the RoadPeace link, ocdc.

I fear that your point about the police is correct, I fear that having the automatic liability for medical costs will affect insurance premiums, which gets me, but not actual change attitude to other road users.

There's a lot of evidence from the Continent that this does change attitudes to other road users.

I also fear that this will cause more people to drive off and leave the scene of accidents.

Well, the idea is to have fewer crashes in the first place. The hit-and-run rate in London is already pretty high, anyway. With the old prevention effect, there is every chance that such instances will actually decrease.
