Summary

Police scheme in City of London offers errant cyclists a choice – watch a roadside safety video or pay a £50 penalty When Aman cycled through a red light in the City of London this week, he was surprised when the police pulled him over. He was positively shocked when, instead of giving him a fine, officers took him into a gazebo to watch a bike safety film. Aman was one of 30 cyclists caught in the first 20 minutes that morning, as part of a new scheme by City of London police to dissuade cyclists from running red lights.
