@over_clox ah, yes, might makes right.
For reference, when was the street invented? And for what?
@over_clox Yes, the concept is from rail, but it applies to all crossings/intersections.
The point is we lost a lot when we decided that it was okay for death machines to have right of way all around us. We shouldn't accept it as normal.
@lgsp I'm a fan of requiring them over 25kmph. Yes this is largely unenforcable, so no one will be fined. But it still gives the message that if you go fast you should wear one.
But it also gets out of the way of people riding to the corner store for milk
@over_clox @lgsp no, motorised vehicles shouldn't be able to hit pedestrians and cyclists. Mostly because their is a right to walk, not drive a car.
@atzanteol @CompactFlax read the article, it is just expanding the current vehicle laws it include cyclists.
So in all likelyhood cyclists will get slaps on the wrist like drivers to.
@limelight79 @versefedi Attempted Manslaughter feels like an oxymoron to me. Attempted requires intent and Manslaughter requires lack of intent?
@perestroika @poVoq it looks like you can make that longer for bike fit, but yes, they have suspension in there which will impact it a little bit. But that shouldn't be a big deal.
