Pedicabs

Mr. Scott:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport what recent research he has (a) commissioned and (b) evaluated on the safety of pedicabs as a means of public transport; what recent reports he has received on pedicab safety; and if he will make a statement. [243059]

Jim Fitzpatrick:

The Department for Transport has not specifically assessed pedicab safety, but has received a Transport Research Laboratory report on the subject commissioned by the Licensed Taxi Drivers’ Association.

As road vehicles, pedicabs must comply with road traffic law including road vehicle lighting regulations, and with The Highway Code. Enforcement is a matter for the police.

Another union (FBU) firebrand who turned his back on his former mates when they were on strike. Is'nt it amazing how quickly those who get into politics forget about their roots and reality.

Well best they do, instead of avoiding the issue.

It shouldn't be down to the trade to fund danger surveys. :sad:
