What can be done to prevent these as plastic hats don't help?

But that would remove your sole reason for living (whingeing about

cyclists). This could possibly set off severe depression.
You could of course resort to shouting at traffic or making *get off my
lawn* signs for other whingers.

It would also mean the 730 000 daily bicycle journeys in London would be made by car. Just imagine the gridlock.

Indeed and the extra air pollution.

Perhaps we should reverse Nugents' idea and ban non essential motor vehicles.
It has been long established on this group that motor taxes don't even cover the costs of motorway maintenance let alone the costs of the other roads motorists infest.

I have nothing against cars but I do object to assumption that 'the roads are for cars'.
Roads are for people, not machines.

Would none of them go by bus?

Would none of them go by train / Underground?

Would none of them go by taxi (which are already circulating on the
streets)?

Would none of them walk?

Would none of them decide not to bother making the "journey"?

If your answer to any of those is "yes", please explain your "working
out" (if any).

Footage has emerged of the collision. It appears that the adult cyclist was also knocked off in the collision, which happened on a dual use path and stopped to check if everything was OK before continuing on his journey.

....where "continuing on his journey" is a euphemism for "disappearing
sharply so that he could not be held to account for the injuries he had
caused the child".
