The UK government has finally issued their motorcycling strategy (February 2005). This is a quite broadly based transport strategy which covers environmental, infrastructure and traffic management, motorcycle and rider equipment and behavioural factors. The strategy, by the Department for Transport, includes a foreword from the Minister which states that mainstreaming motorcycling as a form of transport is now government policy. This is quite a different approach to most Australian governments, and many others around the world, who consider motorcycle too dangerous to be encouraged and focus policy on harm minimisation and control. The DFT strategy is available at the following: UK Motorcycling Strategy
