In the recent case where a cyclist killed a pensioner the police did not prosecute, they said, because the speed limit doesn't apply to bicycles.
However, careless and dangerous cycling are both offences already.
If the cyclist was dangerous why wasn't he prosecuted? If he wasn't then this new law wouldn't have applied either.
This law is just kneejerk nonsense. The problems you describe are worsening because the police won't enforce the laws we have. In particular, they ignore pavement cycling because the Home Office asked them to!
