As gasoline gets more expensive, more people switch to biking, leading to more crashes. >From the article: --- Wausau already has had enough car/bike incidents that the Police Department recently was awarded a traffic safety grant that will help to put off-duty officers on streets to enforce bicycle laws. Bicyclists, pedestrians and drivers who break laws will be fined, Saager said. --- This is a much better approach to rising gas prices than say a 'gas tax holiday'. -- ===== darin _______________________________________________ Bikies mailing list [email protected] http://www.danenet.org/mailman/listinfo/bikies
