Ok, lets say the worst happens and the RTA pressgangs this crud into practice.
Thats when the real legal challenges start.
1. I will be insisting that the police charge Australia Post mail deliverers for riding a 'motorbike' on the footpath when they deliver mail... and when they refuse to do so... all recorded on videotape Im going to take them ALL to court.
2. When I get booked I will fight the matter in court all the way. I'm a pensioner, I have all the time in the world for court appearances... and Legal Aid to boot.
3. I will be insisting that the power assisted cycles used by some police be assessed as fully complying with the legislation, or put out of use.
4. I will be requiring the RTA to provide recognised testing facilities to facilitate compliance with their legislation, and a court challenge when they wont.
5. I will be seeking legal advice regarding taking the RTA to court for compensation to cover the costs of replacing the power train of my bike to comply with their legislation.
6. I will be calling for compliance of all mobility aids(scooters) for the disabled, along with their banning when they dont comply, along with proposing a class action against the RTA for everyone affected by this proposal.
7. The proposal of a class action by every retailer/business affected by this legislation.
8. Oh yeah, lobbying our pollies on the benefits and viability of MBs along with the environmental benefits of promoting them rather than forcing them off the road.
9. And finally, if this legislation does go through, I will be out there lobbying for legislation for the registering and licensing of ALL pushbike riders(this means you, Cycling Australia and Bicycling NSW) cos basically, we suffer, you get to suffer too for being fundamentalists, and we all know fundamentalists only care about themselves, and no-one else. Cycling isnt owned by the lycra fratenity.
Just a few ideas, so far, on my own part.
