Alrighty,

So your system knows the exact situation and still is slowing down my bike, just at the moment I need to accelerate to avoid being overrun by that large truck heading into me.

How stupid are these folks? We’ve got rules, when people don’t follow those rules, you fine them. Case closed.

No system to prevent a bike speeding, teach people to obey the law.

    As long as there’s close to zero bureaucracy and the process is seamless and digital, sure. I’m totally against anything that puts less people commuting by bike on the streets, and complicated registration is one such thing.

    Many bike shops will register the bike frame serial number for you when you buy it.

      I’m fine with slightly less bikes on the street if it’s just the people who aren’t responsible enough to be in public with them.

      They can cause damage to property and injure people. If you drive a car without a seatbelt you get a fine. If you ride a bike without a helmet you should also get a fine. Head injuries cause strain on the healthcare system. There’s plenty of reasons to require people to register and insure bikes like vehicles.
