Get Some F**king Lights

I know its sensible to have lights, but does EVERYTHING we do wrong have to have a £30 fine?

What if its a case of you took your lights out with you in the morning but they switched themselves on all day in your bag (a feature of Knog's) so when you came to put 'em on your bike the batteries are dead and your bank card got cloned so you cant get money out for new batteries without id which you didnt bring with you as you didn't know your card got cloned, as happened to me two weeks ago?

Bad luck eh?

Fuck police fines for cyclists, catch some murderers and rapists or crack dealers and leave me the fuck alone, I gotta deal with escaping death by shit drivers every day you mugs, I could go on but its all been said a billion times already on forums, in pubs, in the street, at home and is getting so boring I'm gonna digress.

It really angers me how Londons cops are happy to catch us lot out at every opportunity.

...awaits barrage of self-righteous replies

If a car driver was barrelling about the roads with it's light off at night every cyclist under the sun would be throwing a fucking fit.

Loads of kids bimble around my locality with fuck all lights and wearing dark hooded tops - I just think it's natural selection if they get mown down under such circumstances, but if my wife was the person behind the wheel when one of these doppers swerves to their death under her car then she would be heartbroken and never drive again.

i reckon the feds are dead right on this one.
