Default Cycling awareness plan could lead to cheaper insurance for drivers

Motorists should be offered cheaper insurance if they take a course to
make them more aware of cyclists on the roads, the government says.

The Department for Transport also wants to give councils more powers to
tackle parking in cycling lanes.

It is proposing a series of 50 measures in a bid to reduce the number of
cyclists and pedestrians killed.

Last year, 100 cyclists died on UK roads and 470 pedestrians were
killed, an increase of 5%.
