LONDON cheap nike just do it pack , Sept. 21 (Xinhua) -- Cyclists in Britain could be charged with causing death by dangerous cycling, Transport Minister Jesse Norman announced Thursday.

A government review has been ordered following a series of high profile incidents involving cyclists cheap nike just do it air max , the Department for Transport (DfT) said here.

The issue hit headlines in London on Monday after cyclist Charlie Alliston, 20 cheap nike just do it shoes , was cleared of manslaughter -- the British equivalent of involuntary homicide. Pedestrian Kim Briggs, 44 Men's Nike Air Max 97 Safety Orange , died after being hit by Alliston's cycle.

The cycle had a fixed gear and no front brake. Instead Briggs was found guilty of "wanton or furious driving," an offence that dates back to the 1860s. He was ordered to be detained for 18 months in a young offenders' institution.

A new offence would match a current crime that motorists face of causing death by careless or dangerous driving Women's Nike Air Max 97 White , with the prospect of long prison sentences.

Transport Minister Norman also said the review would widen improvements for cycling road safety issues.

Norman said: "We already have strict laws that ensure drivers who put people's lives at risk are punished, but given recent cases it is only right for us to look at whether dangerous cyclists should face the same consequences."

The minister added that the devastation that reckless cycling and driving can cause has already been seen. Norman added: "This review will help safeguard both Britain's cyclists and those who share the roads with them."

Government spending on cycling between 2010 and 2017 has been trebled leading to a huge increase in the number of cyclists on our roads Men's Nike Air Max 97 Ultra '17 White , said the DfT.

In 2015, two pedestrians were killed and 96 seriously injured on British roads after being hit by a bicycle Women's Nike Air Max 97 Ultra Metallic Gold , while every year more than 100 cyclists are killed and more than 3,000 are seriously injured.

The review Men's Nike Air Max 270 Flyknit Triple White , which will seek to improve all elements of cycle safety, will be in two phases. The first phase will analyze the case for creating a new offence equivalent to causing death or serious injury by careless or dangerous driving to help protect both cyclists and pedestrians.

The second phase will be a wider consultation on road safety issues relating to cycling. It will consider the rules of the road Men's Nike Air Max 270 Flyknit Triple Black , public awareness, key safety risks and the guidance and signage for all road users.

QUITO, Feb. 17 (Xinhua) -- Some 12.8 million eligible voters will go to the polls on Sunday to choose a successor to President Rafael Correa, whose 10-year tenure brought much-needed stability to the South American nation.

From 1997 to 2007, Ecuador had seven presidents, the last three were ousted before the end of their four-year term.

The current election is being closely watched to see whether the ruling PAIS Alliance will be given another four-year mandate to continue the "Citizen Revolution" it set in motion, or whether Ecuadorians will vote for a return to neo-liberalism, the only other political current on offer now in Latin America.

The two leading candidates are Lenin Moreno, of the progressive PAIS party, and ex-banker Guillermo Lasso, of the center-right Creating Opportunities (Creo) party.

"Two economic models are at stake: the politically progressive project the government has developed over the past 10 years and the old business model, which had severe consequences on the life of the nation," political analyst Juan Paz y Mino told Xinhua in an interview.

Polls show Moreno holds a commanding lead, but not enough to win an outright majority of more than 50 percent, or 40 percent with a 10-percent difference over his closest rival, as required by Ecuadorian law.

That means an April runoff is likely, and that would give Lasso a real shot at the presidency, if the other eight opposition political parties or coalitions unite behind a single candidate.

"Today in Ecuador there are two certainties and one doubt. The first certainty is that there is going to be a runoff; the second is that we are going to be in the runoff. And the doubt is, in what order are we going to come out, quite likely, we are going to come out first," A fairly confident Lasso told the press.

Though Ecuadorians appear to be generally satisfied with the current government, a corruption scandal at state-run oil company Petroecuador has tarnished the image of incumbent vice president Jorge Glas, who is also Moreno's running mate.

While Glas denies any wrongdoing, the scandal has given the opposition something to build their negative campaigns on.

Moreno seemed to address the issue in a recent speech during the campaign, saying: "You know you can trust me, I have never let you down and I never will. Let's continue to move forward together. You give me your vote, and I'll give you my actions and my heart."

Correa hopes the government's track record on fighting poverty, building infrastructure and increasing opportunities will be enough to win voters at the polls.

"We went from being the country of impossibilities to being the country of great achievements in all sectors; you know it, we have seen it," Correa said in January during celebrations marking his 10 years in office.

Fernando Casado, an academic and political analyst with the Institute for National Higher Studies, agreed with Paz y Mino that the race comes down to a contest between two diffe. Cheap Jerseys   Cheap NFL Hats   Cheap NBA Hoodies China   Cheap NHL Hats China   Wholesale Jerseys   Wholesale Jerseys   Wholesale Shirts   Cheap Authentic Soccer Jerseys   Wholesale Jerseys   Wholesale Football Jerseys
