Transport Minister Mr Martin says the regulation adds small cost and convenience but improves safety after 4 pedal cyclists were killed and 969 injured last year. Amended rules also specify lighting for animal drawn vehicles and four wheel carts, with front white lights and rear red lights and reflectors.
