“Richmond Park is just horribly dangerous”: Drivers stream past child cycling in the park | road.cc
4/6/21
We put it to you lot…how can we stop beauty spots being mobbed by drivers? The question comes after this morning’s video from Richmond Park and the photos from the Lake District over the bank holiday.
cqexbesd gave it a lot of thought…
Provide a decent bus service, bike hire scheme, train service (that carries bikes). Ban cars entering without permits. Permits available for short periods and long periods. Permits require you scoring enough points (because we all like a good points system). Points for disability and infirmity. Infirmity can be both temporary or permamnet (i.e. through old age, very young age, pregnancy etc). Points for genuinely having to carry a lot of stuff (e.g. tradespeople working in the area). Maybe limited short term permits for full vehicles (i.e. you can drive as long as there are at least 4 people in your car). Points for people who actually live in the area…
Thoughts?
