    Ah – OK – yeah, I can see how you could read it like that. Anyone who did draw up something like that would deserve a kicking for the headaches it would cause people trying to use it, but still it’s just the sort of thing you can imagine being produced by a government department.

    It’s the latter – it’s the valuation of the bike (this is clear when you consider that it’s decreasing as the bike gets older). However, it’s specifically the valuation that an employer has to apply at the end of a cycle to work ‘lease’ period, so it’s deliberately lowballed because the whole point is to make the scheme attractive and encourage take-up. It’s basically only there at all to stop people completely taking the piss and using it as a ‘tax-efficient’ way of buying and flogging on bikes.

    I don’t think helmet use counts as personally identifying information, so it’s not really in scope of GDPR.

    Hmm – seems like in this example, someone’s got there before them. Are we sure it wasn’t just someone implying that the roundabout was cancelled?
