Why Bike Theft Is Not Taken Seriously?

    For many people a bicycle is the only transport they can afford and it is very convenient for them to use. Therefore, the impact of the loss of their bike can be {#blank#}1{#/blank#}. But why is cycle theft so often seen as a minor crime?

    According to the police, 96,210 bikes were stolen in 2018, and about one in 50 bicycle-owning households fall {#blank#}2{#/blank#} to cycle theft each year. Those who can afford a second bike might have a "beater", a cheap bike they leave in {#blank#}3{#/blank#} areas, and can afford to lose — but those who cannot make both ends meet, and live below the poverty line will find themselves cornered by bike theft.

    According to a survey for Bike Register, 50% of victims felt police didn't investigate the crime, while those {#blank#}4{#/blank#} in cycle theft see it as low risk in terms of being caught. Police recover just 3% of stolen bikes. In fact, the problem is almost certainly much greater: People often don't report it thinking there's nothing the police can do, so the full {#blank#}5{#/blank#} of the problem remains hidden.

    Cycle crime hotspots were identified as Cambridge, Oxford, Southampton, Bristol, etc. Most cycle thefts occur near or in people's homes, but thieves also {#blank#}6{#/blank#} transport hubs (中心,枢纽) and university campuses. In the meantime, the police have come up with a way to {#blank#}7{#/blank#} the issue. Training 23 officers in regional cycle crime taskforces is part of a national cycle crime strategy, {#blank#}8{#/blank#} with measures like education on safe locking techniques, working with websites where more than half of stolen bikes are sold, and identifying cycle theft {#blank#}9{#/blank#} and priorities.

    If a bike is stolen, there is about a 20% chance the victim will not replace it, losing their transport, exercise, and potential access to local communities and service. It is widely accepted that police's {#blank#}10{#/blank#} effort is fundamental to a drop in cycle theft.

    They're still kids, and although there's a lot that the experts don't yet know about them, one thing they do agree on is that what the kids use and expect from their world has changed rapidly. And it's all because of technology.

    To the psychologists, sociologists, and media experts who study them, their digital devices set this new group {#blank#}1{#/blank#}, even from their Millennial (千禧年的) elders, who are quite familiar with technology. They want to be constantly connected and available in a way even their older brothers and sisters don't quite get. These differences may seem slight, but they{#blank#}2{#/blank#} the appearance of a new generation.

    The {#blank#}3{#/blank#} between Millennialelders and this younger group was so evident to psychologist Larry Rosen that he has {#blank#}4{#/blank#} the birth of a new generation in a new book, Rewired: Understanding the ingeneration and the Way They Learn, out next month. Rosen says the technically {#blank#}5{#/blank#} life experience of those born since the early 1990s is so different from the Millennial elders he wrote about in his 2007 book, Me, MySpace and I: Parenting the Net Generation, that they distinguishthemselves as a new generation, which he hasgiven them the nickname of "ingeneration".

    Rosen says portability is the key. They are{#blank#}6{#/blank#}from their wireless devices which allow them to text as well as talk, so they can be constantly connected—even in class, where cell phones are {#blank#}7{#/blank#} banned.

    Many researchers are trying to determine whether technology somehow causes the brains of young people to be wired differently. "They should be distracted and should perform more poorly than they do," Rosen says. "But findings show teens {#blank#}8{#/blank#} distractions much better than we would predict by their age and their brain development."

    Because these kids are more devoted to technology at younger ages, Rosen says, the educational system has to change {#blank#}9{#/blank#} .

    "The growth on the use of technology with children is very rapid, and we run the risk of being out of step with this generation as far as how they learn and how they think. We have to give them options because they want their world {#blank#}10{#/blank#} ," Rosen says.
