On a related note: round here in South Wales, if you're a cyclist and you report a crime on the road, you're asked how you were dressed. This isn't the case if you're a motorcyclist or a pedestrian and smells of victim blaming to me #operationsnap

Screenshot of BBC Scotland's news page with 4 highlighted news articles out of the top 10 today being related to road violence.
