Bike riders should buy $25 annual license, Chicago alderman proposes


The Chicago Sun-Times on the new move to force you to get a bike license from Chicago tyrants:
“You register the bike and you also take a one-hour safety education training course. Rules of the road — like you do when you get your driver’s license. There’s been some accidents in the city. We’ve read about that. Some people just get on a bike. They don’t really realize what the rules of the road are or what the signal is for a left-hand turn, a right-hand turn. There’s some usefulness in having them take a short course.”
