If an idiot in a car changes lane in front of bicycles and then
suddenly brakes are the bicycles that run into him liable for the damage
to his car? Usually the vehicle in the rear is at fault.

** The recent case you allude to involved a deliberate act by a car driver
who *intended* to cause damage to property and injury to many persons. And
it certainly did.

It was also a highly reckless act with regard to human life - so a very
serious crime.

Once arrested, the culprit(s) will face a criminal trial and a possible long
jail term.

OTOH - wankers like YOU can be as big a fucking dick on usenet as you
like without suffering the consequences.

Kindly go drop dead.

You failed to mention it was 50 bicycles and he ran up the back of them
drove along side and swerved toward them then pulled in front then
slammed on the brakes.

What I found interesting from the story was he did all this (ran over
the back ones and swerved the middle ones off the road) but the front
ones were still riding at full speed.

When i used to do recreational mountain biking if you heard a mate
scream you would look to see what was happening.

Didn't the lead pack give a fuck about those behind them or do you not
abuse someone running you over?

**That he is at fault, there is no doubt. Of more interest is if his
insurance company will pay for the (very considerable) property damage. Some
of those high bicycles can cost many thousands of Dollars.

I hope he rots in gaol for a long time.

The rear vehicle at fault disappeared in the mid 1980s if you can prove the
driver changed lanes without regard to the vehicles behind - road
conditions, type of vehicle, etc etc.

Truck insurance companies nearly always dispute a rear end (truck hits car)
accident at traffic lights and roundabouts as the car driver(s) is usually
at fault.

If the lane change was otherwise legal the bikes will find themselves to
blame, just as if they had been a car. Of course, there may be more to such
an incident than a legal lane change followed by a need to emergency brake.

Cars are allowed in bicycle lanes under certain conditions. If bicycle lanes
are solely for the use of bicycle riders they should be paying registration
fees etc.

They should be paying rego & 3rd party fees
anyway, assuming they will be injured on the
roads. Why should these candy-coloured
pests be any different from other road users?

Were all the 20 cyclists in the bike lane?
Not bloody likely. Indeed they often ride
two abreast, overflowing the bike lane, to
talk to each other.

The incident probably went like this:

1/ Some of the 20 cyclists overflowed the
bike lane, so causing obstruction to
motorists.

2/ A motorist became enraged, as well he
might.

3/ Motorist taught them a lesson.

Way to go!!

Incidentally, why are these mooning rainbow
freaks not allowed on freeways? I suspect
for the same reason they cause mayhem
everywhere else.

Not if the car driver could prove it - it does, however, raise another
question tho; if a third person was killed or injured as a result of the
cyclist's reckless actions - where is his (C)TP insurance to cover the victim/s?

1/ because your rego pays for what, exactly?

unlikely if they were professional cyclists

Usually full of parked cars.

Which they are legally entitled to do (2 abreast in a lane). You seem
to be ignorant of a fair number of road rules.. did you get your
license from a wheeties packet, too?

Who says they weren't insured for third party damage?

Rego pays for the *right* to use the road, and compulsory third party
insurance covers those injured in any accidents the vehicle may cause.

Two things cyclists seem to not only be exempt from, but vehemently opposed

There is indeed.

*ALL* road going vehicles should pay a registration fee and compulsory third

given they were composed of

then I'd hazard that odds are better than not they were insured.

Sure they are, if you're able to identify them after they've dusted
themselves off and ridden away and if you're willing to take out a civil
suit against then to recover your costs. Of course, we all know that any
judgement may mean nothing more than a buck a week in payments after you've
spent thousands.

*if* they decide to pay.

How much damage they cause is completely irrelevant.

The fact remains that they can cause damage and kill, and they have.

So you *were* just guessing then.

In an interview to the TV media yesterday, one of the riders suggested that
he wasn't insured, and that as his bike is now a right-off he's facing
uncertain times as he was training for the Olympics.

Two points here worth noting: One is that public roads are *not* test tracks
for medal wannabees, and the story as portrayed by the media thus far is
only one side of it.

If that bike gets used on the road, then yes.

you are confusing third party (which is what we're discussing) and
comprehensive.

My home and contents covers my bike for damage on the roads.. If
people don't have their ridiculously expensive sporting goods covered,
that's their idiocy biting them on the bum, as far as I'm concerned.

> Two points here worth noting: One is that public roads are *not* test tracks

Agreed it is very one sided coverage.. the fact that they're olympic
wannabees is irrelevent to the matter, so I'm not sure why the media
is beating up on it (anythings for a story, I guess).

There's a comment from the driver in the SMH which portrays a
different picture of the incident. I am not absolving anyone.

What's this specific fee you keep bleating on about? Every person in
NSW pays through their arse for the road system. Do pedestrians get
pay to a fee to walk on your sacred tarmac, too?

Rego pays for nothing other than the beaurocracy which supports it.

No idea how many pushbikes are ridden on the roads. I do know that
bicycle NSW membership (> 10k a few years back.. so who knows how many
now) specifically has $20million public liability insurance attached
to membership.

** Yep - he bravely went on talkback radio (2GB) to defend himself
against all the libelling going on.

If his story stacks up ( pun intended ) after the police have spoken with
everyone involved - he may well not be charged with any offence.

The cyclists were all travelling in a close pack, contrary to all good road
sense & as a result some of them failed to see and avoid his car when he
stopped on the verge due to a fuel problem.

You obviously don't get out much, the bicycle lane is my town, ranges from 2
meters to 5 metres wide
Typically a 4 lane road with parking space alongside, has been transformed
to a 2 lane road with a parking lane and a bloody great huge bicycle lane.

Even then, the cyclists, from a club, ride three for and five abreast,
riding in the cycle lane and also the parking lane and half way into the car
lane, which has already been narrowed from 2 to 1 lane.

It's all part of the consolidated revenue process. It pays for health,
roads, nursing homes, gay & lesbian mardi-gras. The point being that you
cannot legally drive a motor vehicle on a road without having paid a
registration fee. Pushbikes are the only road going vehicle which are exempt
from this, and for the life of me I can't see any logical reason for that.

Nor can I see any reason to dedicate part of any road specifically for their
use.

economists advocate pricing based on the externalities of an activity
or product, i.e. those costs not already incurred.

in the case of cyclists, it would be difficult to justify what those
externalities would be:
1. road wear - negligible
2. congestion/road space - negative cost (societal benefit)
3. health care - negative cost (societal benefit)
4. road building - cost of bike paths, although since they're shared
with pedestrians, so should the cost be - negligible
5. emissions (health care) - negative cost (societal benefit)

the reality is that if you applied a registration cost to cyclists
based on genuine, accepted economic principles, you'd have to pay them
to use the road.

if you are injured by a motor vehicle impact, the CTP provider will pay
(once liability is admitted by the CTP co) for all medical expenses required
to get the injured back to health - medical attention, procedures, rehab,
physio, medications etc. and once the situation is stable, ie the injury
stabilises / heals or goes away and all is good, the CTP insurer will pay
out the injured to settle the case and clear their books after 3 years max.
If the claimant is not happy with the sum offered, a CARS claim is issued to
the insurance company with a counter claim. The insurance co. will then
make another stab somewhere between their initial offer and the counter
claim amount - this is normal.
In this case, the CTP insurer will be liable for all and any medicals for
all injuries to all people. To have the bikes fixed, that is a
comprehensive insurance claim against the driver who refers this to his
comprehensive insurer. They may well tell him he is on his own through any
proven malicious actions by himself.
Time will tell and heal all wounds. Hopefully.

True enough.

> 2. congestion/road space - negative cost (societal benefit)

I'd argue that cyclists add to congestion woes in certain circumstances.
Particularly those on multi lane roads where the traffic is flowing at a
reasonable pace but has to slow and change lanes when a couple of bike
riders are riding two abreast in one lane at a dawdling pace upsetting all
the traffic behind them.

> 3. health care - negative cost (societal benefit)

Dunno about that.

Something tells me that riding a bike in city traffic wouldn't be much chop
for you.

> 4. road building - cost of bike paths, although since they're shared
> with pedestrians, so should the cost be - negligible

Many roads in Victoria have sections of the road dedicated purely to
cyclists, and in some cases they've shut down a complete lane and made it
exclusive to cyclists. Apart from the costs associated with doing this
(which we all have to pay for whether you ride a bike or not) there is also
the associated traffic problems that seem completely out of proportion to
the number of bikes that use these paths.

> 5. emissions (health care) - negative cost (societal benefit)

Agreed.

No, you wouldn't, unless you were also going to apply the same principles to
things like mopeds (which are so close to a pushbike it ain't funny).

Of course, some cyclists should pay a *heavy* annual premium for the right
to wear those fucking ridiculous mutil coloured outfits they wear that we
all have to look at and lose our lunch over.

Where did I ever say cyclists *shouldn't* be on the roads?

I'm not advocating a ban on anything Trev. My point, in case you missed it,
is that cyclists should pay their way like everyone else. Cars, trucks,
busses, vans, motorbikes, scooters, tractors, forklifts and anything else
that takes to the road has to pay a registration premium for the privilege
of doing so *except* for bicycles and Horses.

Horses are a pretty rare commodity on our roads these days, but there are
*thousands* of bicycles in use.

Now, if you've got some time to spare, sit back and watch all the bleeding
heart tight-arsed pushbike riders pipe up about how they "pay their taxes
and already pay their way".

Fucking idiots.

Pushbike: A kid's toy usually discarded by most people when they become old
enough to drive, or taken up by drivers when they blow over the legal limit
:)

limbs, replace destroyed skeletal elements or heal the mental and physical
scarring that follows a bad injury but it can help people to get on with
their lives. It would be good to preclude these motorists from reoffending
by a lifetime ban but I don't see any democracy wearing that these days.

All this shows is a balance sheet which depicts rapid surge toward
insolvency

and the next bit claims 10,000 members at an average of $85 membership fees
so that is theoretically, $850,000 in the coffers
but the balance sheet shows only $2000 in revenue.

Arrant nonsense.

The persom suing for compensation sues the person responsible, and that
person's insurer will take over the handling of the matter for the person
insured. Both legally and in practice, one sues the persom responsible,
*not* the insurer.

You are plainly wrong. Go on, admit it.

road _wear_ is negligible, but roads still need maintenance,
even if they aren't getting used. Look at the dedicated bike
lanes, and dedicated bikeways. They still need maintenance,
even if the bikes themselves cause negligible damage.

Agreed. And you just get past them, stop at a red light, and
the fuckwits overtake you on the left while you are stopped,
and you have to go through the whole routine again.

And they'll create a dedicated lane for the cyclists, and
the fuckwits still ride out in the main traffic anyway! Or
they'll have a concrete dedicated bike path separate from
the road - it'll be empty and they'll all be on the road.
Must be something about the seat pressure on their arse that
destroys their ability to think.

I wouldn't say the cost of road building would be
negligible. In many cases the bike lane takes up 10-20% of
the road surface. That's a lot of space and value dedicated
to just one type of road user.
