GB News: Cyclists face life in prison under new road rules designed to remove 'grey area' sentencing loophole
Cyclists face life in prison under new road rules designed to remove 'grey area' sentencing loophole
Experts are advocating for tougher penalties for dangerous cycling, suggesting that cyclists who seriously injure or kill could face life sentences. Current laws, dating back to 1861, are seen as outdated and inadequate for addressing reckless behavior on the roads.

The Department for Transport is considering new regulations as part of the Crime and Policing Bill, aiming to enhance road safety and address the risks posed by modern transport methods, including electric bikes and scooters. The government emphasizes that dangerous cycling is unacceptable and safety remains a priority.
