The logic used to create this crap is so faulty its sad.
I think thats UK news and but you never know it may make its way here.
Great Idea!
What next, punishing the person standing in line because the person in front of them used a fake check or credit card to pay?
I think they should attach jailtime. I hear the prison industry is a big money maker all the way around.
What a joke. Who's to say the lead rider made it through a yellow light while the others stopped on a red. Say the leader slows down his pace for the other riders to catch up after they get the green light... how the hell should the leader be at fault if his friends speed to catch up?
Hmm

Send this link to Julian Fantino and I'm sure he'll implement and take credit for it!
I don't see how thats going to work, I've been on thousands of group rides ,and it always works in reverse to that. the cops show up, the lead guy boots off and who ever is in the back takes it for the team...
Dat's the rules..:lol:
I see the sense in this. We already know the lead rider has a certain responsibility for the riders behind. I know of groups that have been pulled over and the lead rider, being a mature and sensible person, asked to spare the riders behind because they were only trying to keep up. So in fact he was acknowledging his greater share of responsibility.
This rule would only enforce what we (should) already know is just and fair.
So let me get this straight, im riding minding my own business doing 120km/h on the 401 when another bike rider sees me in the distance and speeds up to 160km/h to catch up to me and i lose my bike along with him?? haha makes perfect sense.
Plate tucked, downshift, full throttle...see you later :D
Isn't Canadian Law based on British law and any precedence sets greads for future rulings? Correct me if I am wrong... but in case something like that is sentenced in Canada we will be all seriously raped? Why not charge every car driver for one drivers speeding? More revenue..
Bottom line, you have a licence, you have the responsibility to obey the law. If the leader is breaking the law, you have the choice between doing the same or toeing the line. The resonsibility is yours and not the lead rider's. While a few extremists might scream for higher taxes and harsher legal penalties for everyone and everything, I'd rather not live in a police state, so I'll sincerely hope that you never see the inside of a political office other than being a delivery-boy.
I've organized my fair share of group rides. The speed is always the lowest speed that every rider is comfortable with. Why should I be more culpable than everyone else who chose to follow me? If you don't like the pace, signal that you're leaving the group and leave. Don't ***** and whine that the evil group leader coerced you to break the law and that you're just a poor lost little girl, just obeying the commands of his immense authority.
what's up with these weird court cases from Uk these days? like a few weeks back i read in UK this guy found an abandoned shotgun in his backward, called the police and was instructed to turn it to a police station, when he did he was arrested for possession of firearm now potentially facing jail time.
You don't know all that much about human nature, do you?
