What do you think? When deaths caused by cars is in over 1.5k in 2023 and e-bikes and e-scooters account for less than 100. Is this really where resource should be focused?
That's TV Thames Valley@ThatsTVThames

"We see significant concern from residents." 118 e-bikes and e-scooters were seized from the beginning of June to the start of September by Thames Valley Police. Police and Crime Commissioner @matthew_barber spoke to That's TV about tackling e-scooter and e-bike crimes.

deliveries in an hour to pay your bills you can see why these bikes appeal. Possibly targeting companies that are benefiting from this would help. Regardless of your opinion it’s a really interesting take on multiple angles. Well worth a listen.

@LauraGMitchell I listened to a parent complain about traffic and dangerous driving due to the congestion on Tuesday. Today I cycled past them in their oversize car. They live 2 streets away from the school. :( I don’t think they realise they’re part of the problem.

We want a mural of the different types of bikes and active transport you can use on an underpasses in #rdguk. Ideally the station underpass. Who do I talk to?  Imagine giant paintings of cargo bikes,, recumbents, walkers, skate boarders etc all normalising travel out of a car.

"Despite bicycling being considered ten times more dangerous than driving, the evidence suggests that high-bicycling-mode-share cities are not only safer for bicyclists but for all road users."
