On the one hand I think this may be good for cyclists.
On the other hand I think of what Ronald Reagan pointed out as the most terrifying phrase there is..."I'm from the government, I'm here to help."
How long before well-meaning advocacy falls victim to bureaucratic ineptitude or malfeasance and legislates the fun and practicality out of cycling.
Car sales down? Lobby for draconian cycling statutes under the guise of "safety" and make cycling a less attractive alternative.
