UK plans to cracks down on “wild west” e-bike behaviour
Summary
Anton Savage discusses the UK government's crackdown on e-bike anti-social behavior with Ciarán Cuff, co-chair of the European Green Party. They compare London's chaotic parking issues to Dublin's stricter regulations, which require rental bikes to be locked to stands. Cuff advocates for geotagging and vigilance to manage private rental schemes, while emphasizing that cars and large SUVs remain the primary cause of serious road injuries and deaths.
