While they (cyclists) go unpunished by the police for ignoring traffic LAWS, the mayhem will continue.

No lights after dark, ignoring red lights, cycling on footpaths, no hand signals, riding 'no-handed', texting, etc etc. A bicycle is a vehicle when used on the highway.

Of course it falls in line with the general disrespect for law and order in this country these days....and the half-hearted slaps on the wrist handed out to transgressors...when anyone bothers to actually pull them up.
