Electronic tagging for motorcycles (criminal or not)!!!

The BMF have highlighted in a press release today the DVLA (Driver Vehicle Licensing Authority) consultation document on the pros and cons of using EVI for motorcycles as a means of addressing both tax evasion and criminal activity.

So they suggest that motorcyclists alone should have their bikes tagged!! So are we more statistically likely to be criminals or avoid our road tax? Where do the ambitions of the surveillance state end?

Do you as a law abiding motorcyclist want to have your motorcycle electronically tagged so "Big Brother" can know your every movement when your on your motorcycle?

This proposal is a slur against all law-abiding motorcyclists and a gross infringement of our civil liberties, do you want to have your motorbike electronically tagged and hence you when your on it, just like a criminal?

I'm amazed that this can be be put forward as a sensible policy possibility.

How much money has been wasted on this idea so far? Money that would have been better spent on putting more policemen on the beat and back in patrol cars on our roads.

I urge all fellow motorcyclists to resist this proposal by backing the BMF, MAG and writing to your MP to object.

Tell inter-bike what you?
We'd love to hear your views.

Ride safe!
