What if all bikes sold in the UK had to be chipped. Like dogs and cats.
Purchaser uses the identity card they haven't got to register their ownership of that bike.
But better still would be a QR sticker on the bike. You can buy these at the Post office ( if you can find one)
As the label is sold the details are recorded in the database.
Stick it on your bike. Job done
Just see the bigger picture!
The registered owner will have an app on their phone recording the serial number and their details.
The police, who have nothing else to do, can stop you and scan your bike. The registered keeper pops up on the system.
You do not identify as the keeper, the bike is confiscated. And the rider receives a fixed penalty charge.
On production of suitable I d. the bike can be recovered. For a fee of course and a fixed penalty for letting someone use your bike.
Bikes without a label are confiscated automatically, labelled and be available for recovery. A fee will of course be involved.
A subtle side benefit is that some scroat on a nicked bike is bang to rights.
Either they have removed the label or they cannot identify as the registered keeper.
Old bikes have to be labelled when they are sold or given to a new owner. Or when they are subject to a stop by the police.
QR scanner are on phones these days. So when a bike is traded you go online with the seller and transfer the ownership. But you need the original owner, the label, their phone and your phone.
Label is damaged, go to the post office with your details on the phone and buy a new one
Easy,
Yes it's Saturday afternoon and I'm bored.
