Readers may recall a blog written by our Belinda Cassidy on whether a light rail is a motor vehicle or not (and whether the Motor Accident Injuries Act would apply to someone injured in an accident on or with a light rail vehicle). The new trams are fast approaching (pardon the pun) and the opening of the new light rail corridors are not far away. This article is a great summary of the rules and regulations (and fines) applicable to the interaction between people, bicycles, cars and the trams.
