Re: One more success for the War on Terror (tm)



Over here in the "land of the free", they put points on your driver's
(sic) license for offences committed on a bicycle (especially running
the ubiquitous stop signs). Mind you, they also fine you about a
hundred quid for jaywalking (crossing the street when the pedestrian
light is red - and, yes, this really happened to a friend of mine).
