Passengers can only be carried if the cycle has a pillion seat and footrests. The pillion seat must protect children's legs from the wheels. Cycles must be kept in good working condition. Both motorists and cyclists have the right to use the road. Both have a responsibility to understand and respect each other's needs.
Motorists expect cyclists to obey the road rules.
This is important because motorists travel faster than cyclists, and they have less time to react. When cyclists do not obey the road rules they can take motorists by surprise. It is also up to you to maintain your lights in good working order. In general, enforcement activities are directed at adults and parents, and focus on education rather than punishment.
