(asked on 1st March 2023) - View Source
Question to the Department for Transport:
To ask His Majesty's Government what plans they have to introduce tougher penalties for death or serious injury caused by dangerous, careless or inconsiderate cycling.
This question was answered on 13th March 2023
The Government is considering bringing forward legislation to introduce new offences concerning dangerous cycling, to tackle those rare instances where victims have been killed or seriously injured by irresponsible cycling behaviour. This follows an earlier review exploring the case for specific dangerous cycling offences, a response to which the Government will publish as soon as it can.
