Should Cyclists Have A Speed Limit?

from Talkback with Petrie Hosken

Reckless e-bike riding has forced the Netherlands to test a strict 12mph speed limit on cycle paths. Now, the UK is facing the same problem. British safety groups want tougher laws as official data shows that over 15,000 people are injured in bicycle and e-scooters crashes, with around 80 cyclists killed or seriously hurt every year. Petrie is asking if you think we need to bring in stricter laws for cyclists and should they have a speed limit? Executive Director at The Parliamentary Advisory for Transport Safety, Jamie Hassall, gives a professional deep dive before you get to talk back and give your opinions. Hosted on Acast.
