BTW Carryfast . i wasnt referring to you as a troll .
I was talking to that bunch of idiot doormats above who are wittering on about lights .
They are unable to support their case with any evidence , incapable of independant or original thought , or argue their way out of a paper bag .
That little circle of bumboys are only lorry drivers because they are too thick to shovel [zb] in a skip for a living !
To you carryfast i would say that CPS guidelines already mean certain offences are ALWAYS referred to them for a decision on prosecution .
Such as domestic violence , race hate and child abuse
And if a lack of lights were an issue in a cyclist fatality then the police should submit their evidence to CPS , who would probably decide that there is no realistic chance of conviction , or its not in public interest .
But it cant be left to PC Plod who has proven himself incapable of supplying justice to halfish of dead cyclists
And with that quote you’ve answered your own question. Why waste resources (in the current climate of austerity) on an open and shut case? What is the benefit? What is to be gained? Nothing.

Coming from you I think that’s the funniest thing ive ever heard in my life!!
Any time you get asked a direct question regarding anything you post you respond with either insults or you by pass it by twittering on about something else.
Why should cyclists be given special treatment in the event of a collision? Given that you yourself claimed to regularly ride on the dual carriageway holding onto the back of a lorry and actually seemed quite proud of it?
The he-she doesn’t do it. They’re trying to big themselves up. As said before if they really are a driver, then they’re terminally useless and couldn’t even get a job with an agency on nights for £8.50/hour, hence the trolling on here.
It’s quite uplifting to know that the special buses have wifi however.

What about the cyclist I passed on a dark country lane at 5:30 am no lights and dark clothing [emoji49] if I knocked him off and killed him I would be taken to court due to his muppettry
Every morning I see these clowns riding to work without lights. Assuming they get paid at that workplace, so why not buy the lights, unless they have a death wish at someone else’s expense.
Personally I’d like to see bikes seized on the spot for reckless actions and shipped off to third world countries to be used for basic transport. That would cure a few of them.

to bring justice for dead people .
everyone who is killed on road deserves to , at the very least , have the evidence gathered by police reviewed by CPS to determine if the should have their day in court .

Id id quite like to know how you can be so demanding of more protection for cyclists despite claiming to be the guy holding onto the back of a lorry while on a dual carriageway. I fail to see how someone who does that (IE you) is really the best mouth piece and poster child. If anything, you only hamper the effort, not help it.
So whats your reason for regularly (as you claim) to be breaking two laws in one and actually boasting about it? Do you not think it kind of negates any point your trying (and failing) to make?

is this an Answer ■■ 
Sorry, is this your answer? Where is the “evidence to support your case”?
Hardly showing us your ability to “argue your way out of a paper bag” is it?
The man demanding answers from everyone else cant answer any asked of him?
Oh dear

According to RoSPA, about twenty percent.
Here’s my question for you. Take the cyclist in the video on the other thread, the one where he tries to squeeze between the bus and car. Hypothetically, if he had died as a result of that accident, what would be the benefit of refering that case to the CPS? What justice would need to be served? What criminal action, other than by the cyclist, has occurred?
Yes, cyclists need protecting, but sometimes from themselves.

What can you say? People do stupid things on the road all the time and yes that includes a few truck and bus drivers too.
However there is a world of difference between an error of timing judgement at roundabouts and junctions etc, a missed observation in dense traffic, confusion at an unfamiliar traffic setup etc… in contrast to riding (or indeed driving) like a complete moron, with no regards to either one’s own safety, or the safety of others.
Whilst it is true that trucks have lights, they only shine forwards and do not cover the vast areas of darkness alongside the trucks. Anything approaching from the sides during darkness, that deliberately chooses not to have lights themselves, whether that be a cyclist or a car, are the ones that are choosing to put themselves purposefully at risk and all the ‘finger prodding’ in the world, isn’t going to remove that danger.
I am sure there are cyclists reading this that have never driven a truck, or even a car and all I would say to them is buy some bloody lights, wear something light during the darker mornings and evenings and minimise the risks to yourselves. Cutting costs by not buying a few poxy batteries, is truly no good when you end up spending the rest of your life in a wheelchair. Ride safe, be seen and go home in one piece…

Yes, cyclists need protecting, but sometimes from themselves.
In the case you highlight I would imagine the CPS would conclude in under 30 seconds that 100% of the blame lies with the cyclist, it is a pretty easy one. So why should the police pass their findings to the CPS for consideration; I think it is reasonable to note that the police are not remotely interested in policing the roads, I also suspect the many police officers, just like most people are car obsessed and as such probably dislike cyclists as they are incapable of travelling at the posted speed limit and slow them down, I therefore believe in cases where a motor vehicle has been in collision with a bike that the CPS need to check the police are doing their job properly.

I dont think ive seen any posts by deiseldoforme but I have long suspected hes got more than one username so it wouldnt surprise me. Trolls like him rarely use the same username 100% of the time.

But why should incidents involving cyclists be given preferrential treatment? ALL road incidents involving a death deserve the same level of attention. Why should cyclists be treated any better? Especially since we are all talking about this on a thread started by a cyclist who boasts of holding onto lorries while on dual carriageways
quote …
Whst part of driving with due care and attention dont u as a professional driver understand ?
Ive left work with good lights before and when i get home they are not .
Its happened on my motorbike too .
Its your responsibility to be on look out …
And the fact that ive had a malfunction is not a licence for u to get away with murder . unquote
I thought murder had to be premeditated or with malice aforethought ? accidentally having some daft ■■■ off his bike cos the arse is riding without lights or doing a stupid move should hardly be construed as that
