Maybe there does need to be some sort of scheme set up for these sorts of things which is not really an opt in as it is with public liability.
I'm not sure how it would work if we don't go down the rego/licence path. It has been suggested that something be included in the sale of bikes but I don't know how far that would go to fund such a thing.

If you are going to cycle regularly it might be a good idea to get liability insurance.

Luckily for that bloke he was apparently covered by public liability insurance via his membership with Pedal Power.
