Closed petition: Require cyclists who use main roads to have an identification number plate

Closed on

We want the government to introduce mandatory identification plates similar to car registration plates for cyclists who use main roads.

While motor vehicles are held accountable for their actions on the road by being easily identified by their car's registration plate, cyclists aren't as easily identifiable. It has been reported that up to 52% of accidents involving cyclists list a cyclist-error. A way to easily identify dangerous cyclists could help reduce the danger on the road for both drivers and cyclists.
