"I would like to see every bicycle driven from this land" [...] "And you know, when you run them
over, they scream blue murder!"…"and very messy - makes a splat sound - you know, its absolutely
everywhere" - Prince Michael of Kent, speaking in 1997[1].
Prince Michael of Kent has a Road Safety Award named after him despite his history of serious
motoring offences. He is connected with the RAC, though probably no longer the RAC foundation since
the rescue service was sold off by the London club.
He is apparently a supporter of BHIT. Which is consistent with his statement of 1997, I suppose...
[1] as reported by Kirsten Denker, London Cyclist August/September 1997.
