| Camel Herder are you Big Brother?
To analogize: I wear my seat belt in my car each and every time I drive -- we don't need a law telling me to. My children came home from the hospital and rode in a approved car child seat every time they were in a moving vehicle until they were 48lbs.-- we don't need a law telling me to do so. I wear my cycling helmet each and every time I ride my bike -- we don't need a law telling us to do so.
WE DON'T NEED A NANNY STATE.
Back in the day .... in fact on my collector 1970 bike it still appears to this day ... we had bicycle registration and they had to display a license (with its own number) on the bike. It was a bureaucratic nightmare. Non-enforceable with children involved, and the premise of recovery through identification was a pipe dream. It was thought through and discontinued.
What you do doesn't give me a bad name. You run the light... you are at fault...not me.
WE DON'T NEED SAVED FROM OURSELVES.
By the way I am insured for liability while riding my bicycle. Are you? I am a careful rider who takes few chances and obeys the law. Are you?
