New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio said he is considering requiring bicyclists to be licensed and registered like automobile drivers currently are.
According to a report in the New York Daily News on Wednesday, the mayor also wants to expand the city's safety regulations, which already have won it a nanny-state reputation, to include requiring Citi Bike renters to wear helmets.
Mr. de Blasio called the idea of forcing cyclists to have licenses and registration a "valid discussion," the Daily News reported, and added that he also plans a crackdown on cyclists who break traffic laws.

Pedestrians should be required to be licensed as well, while requiring turn signals to be worn on their ears. Their shoes should require registration and insurance. Fat pedestrians should be required to wear "WIDE LOAD" signs front & back. Hey Bill de Blasio, FUCK YOU, you butt-tarded dipshit!
