Boardman lets it slip

"We know we won't make our carbon targets, our legal targets, unless we
drive a lot less”.

<https://road.cc/content/news/chris-boardman-shuts-down-cycling-registration-debate-296551>

There you have it - the reason for talking up cycling despite the fall in
cycle usage, between 25 and 40%.

One wonders what Auriol Grey would make of this gem:

“Active Travel England Commissioner and former world champion Chris
Boardman, whose mother was killed by a careless driver while riding her
bike, added: “We should remember that dangerous driving, law breaking, and
endangering others is a choice”.

Does that include riding a chav-cycle on the FOOTway?

And ignoring red traffic lights?

And deliberately chav-cycling the wrong way in a one-way street?

There seems to be only one sort of lawbreaker as far as cyclists are
concerned: everyone else but cyclists.

Boardman should stop talking claptrap.
