联合王国提议对造成行人死亡的骑自行车者判处终身监禁,并更新了1861年的法律。 UK proposes life imprisonment for cyclists causing pedestrian deaths, updating 1861 laws.

对联合王国《犯罪和治安法案》的一项拟议修正案可以看到,杀害行人骑自行车者将面临终身监禁,从而更新了维多利亚时代的现行法律。 A proposed amendment to the UK's Crime and Policing Bill could see cyclists who kill pedestrians face life imprisonment, updating current Victorian-era laws. 根据新的立法,那些因粗心大意或危险骑自行车致死的人最多可被判处5年监禁或罚款,这是针对1861年过时的仅允许最多判处2年徒刑的法律。 Under the new legislation, those causing death by careless or dangerous cycling could receive up to five years in prison or fines, addressing the outdated 1861 law that only allowed a maximum two-year sentence. 这一变化是在受此类事件影响的家庭开展宣传运动之后发生的,其目的是使骑自行车的安全法律现代化。 This change follows campaigns by families affected by such incidents and aims to modernize cycling safety laws.
