執行緒： 騎自行車者應實行宵禁嗎？

將實行夜間宵禁時間上騎自行車的人讓道路更安全嗎?我是一個騎自行車的人和為它感到驕傲。還有相同的 Bangernomics 自行車我買了 1972 年。很多生活在它離開了。彈出到建設者客商前幾天去接一些填料，但它是夏時制。這就是為什麼還有還有太多留在我的生活。我現在經營自行車宵禁: 天黑的時候，我不能出去。它是那樣簡單。
最近兩起事件給生活帶來整個辯論的議題。首先，在倫敦與路拱、 汽車停泊在兩側的南部城市，我不得不在黃昏中遵循一個騎車的人。他有沒有燈。沒有反光的夾克。沒有頭盔。但他沒有行動電話連接到他的耳孔。因為迎面而來的交通，我還是不能安全地趕上。我不得不就反彈沿後面這個白癡為大約一英里。由於某種原因，他對我大發雷霆，我發現當我終於追上了時他是多麼惱火海岸是清晰的更廣泛的道路。他使勁，大概是大喊的東西。伯克。
一周後我的鄉間路上沒有路燈。它是漆黑一片，除了一個閃爍的幽靈在遠處。我從未見過如此豐富的反射與騎自行車的人。或為這個問題這麼多的 LED 照明的奧迪這一邊。他知道這該死的危險存在，並不介意我等距離背後歸功於彎曲的道路。他檢查了一次或兩次。不會被濫用，沒有手勢。他看起來還是伯克，不過，在所有的齒輪。
是的騎自行車的人可以是愚蠢和明智的就像司機，和我們可以向後有時鐘和批轉參數整天整夜地長。然而，由於危險和脆弱性，騎自行車的人不應該有宵禁嗎?或至少有年齡限制嗎?如果他們想要走出去，在黑暗中，然後穿上反光背心，放一些燈和能力的考試。打破宵禁和它是監獄。與強迫勞役。誰是和我一起?

Will imposing a night-time curfew on cyclists make the roads safer? Im a cyclist and proud of it. Still got the same Bangernomics bike I bought in 1972. Plenty of life left in it too. Popped up to the builders merchants the other day to pick up some filler, but it was daylight. And thats why there is still so much life left in me. I now operate a cyclist curfew: when it is dark, I dont go out. It is as simple as that.
Two recent incidents brought the whole debate to life. First, in urban south London with road humps and cars parked on either side, I had to follow a cyclist in the dusk. He had no lights. No reflective jacket. No helmet. But he did have a mobile phone attached to his earhole. I couldnt overtake safely because of oncoming traffic. I had to just bounce along behind this idiot for about a mile. For some reason he was furious with me and I found out just how annoyed he was when I finally overtook when the coast was clear and the road wider. He gesticulated wildly and presumably shouted stuff. Berk.
A week later I am on a country road with no street lamps. It is pitch black except for a flashing apparition in the distance. I have never seen a cyclist with such an abundance of reflection. Or for that matter so much LED illumination this side of an Audi. He knew it was damned dangerous out there and didnt mind as I waited a distance behind because of the bendy nature of the road. He checked where I was once or twice. No abuse, no hand gestures. He still looked a berk, though, in all that gear.
Yes, cyclists can be stupid and sensible, just like drivers, and we can have the clocks backwards and forwards arguments all day and night long. However, because of the danger and vulnerability, shouldnt cyclists have a curfew? Or at least an age limit? If they want to go out in the dark, then wear a reflective vest, put some lights on and pass a proficiency test. Break the curfew and it's prison. With hard labour. Whos with me?
