Strict liability would also be a huge plus.
What is that?
There's a good description on Wikipedia:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strict_liability

It's the system they have in the Netherlands whereby there is liability
regardless of negligence.

ah yes - the well known authoritative source "Wikipedia" - this means
that Chapman doesn't really know.

It means that if a cyclist, whilst riding on a pavement, hit a
pedestrian then the pedestrian would automatically be able to claim
damages off the cyclist without having to prove who was negligent.



why would Guy want to encourage that?



Because he doesn't know what he's talking about - he's a ****wit.
