I propose to introduce compulsory liability insurance for cyclists, as is compulsory for cars, and compulsory registration of bicycles, which will be fitted with number plates, just like motorbikes.

Cyclists are often the perpetrators of accidents and, as road users, they should be insured for the damage they may cause to other road users. Making registration compulsory would avoid the attitude where a cyclist flees the scene of an accident (or an offence) knowing that he will not be traced.
