"Is dangerous cycling a problem" BBC

With you until the last point because nobody actually wants that do they?

The conclusion would probably be 'Don't cycle. Drive an Volvo'.

BTW what show was Roger Geffen on?

well i think it would help.

because the point about health and safety principles is that tries to make the person making the risk responsible for it and answerable for their consequences.

so it would be the volvo driver, the volvo manufacturer, the road designer, the road funding authority, the road owner and the oil producer would have to think about pedestrians and cyclists safety in every decsion they made.
