Cycling Safety?

New laws for road users?

The law will have to be changed in the light of recent events, were a man who killed a pedestrian on a bike with no breaks got off with it? Currently there many other forms of people powered transport on our roads and pavements, such as skate boards?

Collision meant or not will continue to be a problem, when people continue to give up on the right of way and yet expect to covered by Insurance and others laws that do not exist?

With the many new ideas of two wheel travel none of them are as safe, despite in some cases being viable in airports and factories for inspections?

The Bicycle still is up there as King!

Segways.

The Two wheel Wonder.

The Segway is taking the world by suprise from the streets of the Czech Republic captial Prague to Thailands Bankok International airport. But many are now wondering how safe are these gyrocope controlled vehicles?

The Segway is perhaps the most prolific developmnet to compare to the invention of the bicyle, but it remains not as good and versatile as the bike. No seat and it is limited to short distant travel and depends very much on human balance technique.

With the further development of solar panels and digital guidance and stability platforms the Segway will perhaps have a further inpact, but it will in no way surpass the bicyle!
