You might as well go all the way. Quite sure most of the bikes where I live don't even qualify as road safe because only road/city bikes are sold with the mandatory safety equipment (lights, bell, reflectors, ...) out of the box and the attachable variants of those are often not road legal either.

So if you want to protect cyclists from themselves lock them in a cell and throw away the key, it is the only way to be sure.



So you're saying there is a mandatory safety law for bikes on the books already and people haven't all stopped biking?


An outstanding result, if your only goal is to get people to ignore laws.
