Cutting motorbike fatalities

Sir, – It has been noted there is a disproportionate risk of fatal injury for motorcyclists. One simple step the Government could take immediately is to allow motorbikes access to bus lanes.

As a motorcyclist I have requested that this be allowed on the grounds of safety. The request was bluntly refused because this was not done in the UK! – Yours, etc,
