 London Bikers are Voters - Questions
Below is the list of questions from the questionnaire being sent to all the declared candidates.
The results of these questionnaires, will be published here and will also be published in the May edition of ‘The Road’, MAG members’ magazine.
Questions
1. Do you own, or have you ever owned, a motorcycle, moped or scooter?
2. Do you think that motorcycles represent a viable and important mode of transport within the hierarchy of transport modes in Greater London?
3. If elected, would you allow motorcycles to use bus lanes on the Transport for London Road Network?
4. If elected, would you put pressure on London Boroughs to allow motorcycles to use bus lanes on borough roads?
5. Do you think motorcycles should be permitted to share Advanced Stop Lines?
6. Given the environmental and congestion-busting benefits that motorcycles have over private cars, do you think that motorcycle parking should be provided to accommodate reasonable demand?
7. If elected, would you put pressure on London Boroughs, and provide funding through Transport for London if necessary, to provide motorcycle parking that is sufficient, suitable, secure and free?
8. Do you support the idea that car drivers should receive greater education about vulnerable road users such as pedestrians and cyclists?
9. Would you, through Transport for London, continue to fund rider education and road safety awareness, for example through BikeSafe and ScooterSafe (a scheme of Police assessed rides)?
10. Do you think motorcycles play a positive role in easing congestion and should therefore be treated as a preferred transport option to the private car?
11. Greater London has the highest levels of motorcycle theft in the UK. Would you make the reduction of motorcycle crime a target in any Crime and Disorder Reduction Strategy?
12. If elected, would you like to receive regular bulletins from the Motorcycle Action Group?
