Employer bans the use of motorcycles!!!

Firm bans thousands of staff from riding bikes

MCN has today reported on its website that Johnson Controls Ltd who employ 136,000 employees world-wide, has advised staff that they must not use motorcycles as a form of transport on company business during office hours or face disciplinary action.

Is this the thin end of the wedge, if other companies jump on this band wagon, we could see the wholesale banning of motorcycle use by other leading blue chip companies?

However well intentioned this may appear, anything that banns the use of motorcycles is bad news for all us motorcyclists as it continues to reinforce outdated stereotypes about motorcycling.

Perhaps what they might have considered is offering advanced motorcycle training to employees who need to use motorcycles on company business.

Ride safe!

Vehicle speeds in Great Britain: 2006

Motorcycles are not the worst speeding offenders

The Department for Transport has just published interesting figures on speeding in the UK in 2006. It seems HGV's may be the worst speeding offenders, athough bikes exceed the speed limit by more!! . Anyway makes interesting reading, and nice to view the raw stats without some biased skew being put on them.
