I'm in two minds about it myself - other than I'd love licencing to
come in for the 'bicycle Nazis' that infest our roads.

Must be a full moon 2UE has been pushing all afternoon ( and Duncan
grey) for license and fluoro jacket with a number on the back.

The jacket sounds a bit over the top - that should be a personal
choice,

They wish to sound a death Knell for cycling.

Well, something needs to be done with those cyclists who have either
an attitude or are just plain irresponsible in traffic.

The cycle use would drop dramatically,There is not a hope in hades that
I would wear a fluoro jacket with a number, I would just never ride a
bicycle again.
Same with mandated clothing for my motorcycle I would just have to cease
riding.
They have already knobbled cycle use with mandated helmets (which some
think good) but bicycle use dropped when it was introduced, if they
mandate fluoro jackets with numbers on the back only the yuppy lycra
crowd would still cycle.
