I’ve always wondered if there is a better way of identifying cycles, like mandatory registration plates that makes their theft a lot more difficult?
I cant really see how much difference that would actually make, motorcycles and cars are stolen easily already and they have numberplates, i imagine cycles are easier to conceal quickly than motorbikes and they get dropped onto a mattress in a van disappearing in minutes these days! Hidden trackers and a police force that actually cares about thefts would be better, especially with so many police resources spent collecting taxes instead of catching the criminals….
