Caution! Euroweenies at Work!
The Observer weighs in with Driver fury over Euro cycle laws:
A furious row is set to erupt between Britain and Europe over proposed legislation to make car drivers responsible for all accidents involving cyclists - even when the bike rider has broken the law and is in the wrong.

To the delight of cyclists and the dismay of drivers, a European law is being planned to force motorists to pay compensation and damages in all accidents with cyclists. The measure will put car insurance premiums up by an average £50.
The Eurocrats must stay up late at night thinking of this stuff.
