Closed petition Require cyclists have lights, license plate and insurance to use the roads

Closed on 30 June 2022

All cyclists should have lights, insurance and a number plate if using the road, for the protection of other vehicles. All cyclists should show a registration on their cycles as to be identified, so that they can be more easily identified if they break the law.

All motor vehicles that use the road have to by law be insured. Why should cyclists not be subject to the same requirement? They don't pay road tax as it is but we believe it is not fair that they also don't need to be insured. If all cyclists had a visible registration on their bicycles, like motor vehicles have to, then they could be more easily identified by CCTV or law enforcement if breaking the law
