The Motorcycle Action Group, the British Motorcyclists Federation and the Motor Cycle Industry Association, and as of February 2010 welcome the support of MCE Insurance, the UK's leading provider of motorcycle and scooter insurance. RAV are running a campaign to encourage riders to vote in the forthcoming General Election and to discuss issues with potential MPs. 2010 appears to be a year where there could be big changes in parliament and this could be the best chance in decades to really influence opinions so that we can get what riders want!
Tired of potholes all over the place or roads designed for the benefit of car drivers? Perhaps you are annoyed about not being able to use your local bus lanes? Can't find anywhere to park when popping into town? Infrastructure is just one of the areas where motorcyclists need to make their voice heard.
Big changes to rider training and testing have been made and more are proposed due to EU directives but these have been and will be made worse due to government mismanagement. The Government has spent millions of taxpayer's money to encourage car buyers to upgrade their old cars and nothing on getting people out of dirty, congesting cars and onto motorcycles.
Millions will be spent on promoting greener cars and the development of technology to make cars greener. At the same time, they have not done anything to promote greener motorcycles and still tax bikes by engine capacity.
