here is a picture taken in the south of netherlands. here, the layout is so much that you are really regarded as cyclists that they have made space for you. the cars know that cyclists have priority. this is a common roundabout situation in the netherlands, also in the village where i live. so this shows that you go for the cyclists. go for cyclists and realize when someone is saying we were cramped in space like in san francisco, we say, well, you have never been to any dutch town because your roads are so wide. and then they think, yeah, but all these lanes are needed for car traffic. i'll tell you, if you use this traffic model, you should realize that the capacity of your system is not determined by the amount of lanes and the stretches of roads but by the capacity of intersections and you realize that the capacity of these intersections are a lot lower than any capacity of lanes that are on the stretches of roads. so it's only a parking place for cars on to the next traffic light or intersection. so it's only convincing the people t

also this is a common sight in the netherlands, a lady with a skirt on with a full necklace cycling. is one of the things, i have other pictures for you. this is an important picture. the average daily number of trips, and you see that on average women make one trip by bike on average in the whole population, men about 1.7 trips per day and you see also that boys from 12 to 16 years old take on average nearly seven kilometers per day by bike. so the bike is just a part of your life. so that's the different. in america a lot of people consider themselves bicyclists. in the netherlands hardly anybody considers themselves bicyclists anything more than brat eaters. everyone eats brats, so everyone cycles. there is no discussion about it. you see on distance, men cycle a little bit more and women use the bike more often because they use it for going shopping or the short distances. one other thing is that biking has a high status in the netherlands, so that's also different from a lot of other countries. this i will skip. hardly readable but this shows that bicycling is used in all kinds

in the netherlands, people who come to work by bike are more regarded them by car. the people who use the car have to find excuses why they still use the car. they just come and say, i just want to go by car. and the fact is, more and more people -- for instance, in amsterdam, by having this past and so on, 9000 people per day choose not to have their car because there was no more accessibility by car but choose the alternatives. 15% of them stay with the alternatives. they had a car. when they experienced it, it was not so bad commuting by bike or public transport, then there were convinced also. -- then it they were convinced also. if you tell people who drive by cars, and i think american politicians are so afraid they might lose voters, but if you keep telling them the detriment of the effects of using their car every day -- what? but they will not mind losing voters. my friends and the businessmen and area, they don't mind. for the around children, -- for their own children, but is it faster, more convenient, and cheaper? those are the reasons why you will choos

in the netherlands, cycling is inherently more safe than in the u.s.a. because all car drivers are also cyclists. 60% of the people in the netherlands cycle at least three times a week. 80% at least once a week. so all the car drivers are also cyclists and they know as they turn right that there is an 80% chance that they will cut off a cyclist if they don't look. so there is also safety by numbers. one last thing and that is about liability. when i hear about cycling in the u.s., people say, oh, but cycling is so dangerous. and then we say, no, cycling is not dangerous. cyclists hardly ever cause accidents. cars cause accidents. cars cause facilities and in the netherlands we have the philosophy that car drivers should realize that they're in a machine that can kill. and also from that on responsibility in taking liability. if a car drives over a child on a bike, no matter what happens, he is 100% liable for whatever happens. and even in the other cases, when a car goes in the collision with an adult on a bike, still there is at least 50% liability for

also, in the netherlands, we're not so good with racing cyclists. ll the champions from last year are from italy, spain, or your country, never from the netherlands. but cycling is more than racing, it is a way of transport. especially for the first 7 kilometers, in combination with public transport. the last lines are important. for instance, in at the city of amsterdam, 85% of the trips are faster by bike then by car -- then by car. i do everything by bicycle. i am a slow cyclist, and i am still faster through the city. that is why most of the people in amsterdam go by bike. if your interested in funny and nice invidious, go to youtube. but you will see a lot of videos in which the bicycle and the car cooperate. these are some pictures and examples of how the public authorities can invest in cycling. this is a parking space for a cyclist. tend thousand bicycles can be stored there. -- 10,000 bicycles can be stored there. you can build a shelter for about 30,000 bicycles. now, what can employees do? many employees are working on the bicycle programs

then we would say in the netherlands, well, you know that's about cycling. so you should reduce your speed when you see the cycling, you just can't drive on with 40 or 45 miles an hour alongside cyclists because there is always the risk that something strange happens so that's important. jurisdiction. there were initiatives to put in a code, but there was large opposition against it, defacto it doesn't make any difference. well, and one of the things is of course and i heard that the system in san francisco of allotting schools to children makes it very difficult, but this is a picture from a primary school, start young so do everything to have children biking. ok. [applause] >> thank you, hans. i see supervisor chiu in the back. we are especially lucky today because supervisor chiu wanted to be here with us and say a few welcoming remarks. he happens to be our own german marshall fellow. honorable davis chiu. [applause] >> good morning. it is a real pleasure for me to be here for a number of reasons. first of all, a couple of years ago i was honored to be pa

a court in the netherlands found that the dutch netherlands bear some responsibility. good judge said that they believed the state had acted illegally -- the judge said that they believed the state had acted illegally toward three men. they will have to pay reparations. it has been a long ordeal. i am asking for the killers of my family, the serbs -- one of them even works in the same building i work in -- can you imagine that? he is still there. it is just one case that i have been dealing with for the last 10 years. >> the families had filed a lawsuit because the three bosnian men who were killed had been watching for the dutch-u.n. peacekeepers. the outcome of the case surprised even the lawyers. 16 years after the massacre at srebrenica, the court ruling about the three men who were turned over to the serbs could have implications for similar cases against the dutch state. >> for years, the "news of the world," britain's top-selling sunday tabloid and part of rupert murdoch's global media empire, has been afflicted by claims of phone hacking. david cameron expressed

who's responsible and not the netherlands. the soldiers who are under a u.n. mandate there's no question about that now on the other hand i think maybe somebody is trying to shift the blame from the u.n. to a member state and this is tricky business because at the end of the day we have some lawsuits other lawsuits not this one against the united nations itself and it's going to or european court because the dutch courts refused to rule against you and so this may be somebody is trying to shift the blame over to holland rather than the u.n. because if the u.n. is liable to one lawsuit it may be liable to our suits all over the world we also have families of service crims who are victims of muslim forces from serbia needs in the period of one nine hundred ninety two to ninety ninety five also suing the drug church state themselves also for failing to provide protection. from what was supposed to be the militarized area and server and it's and this militarization never actually took place if one looks at the testimony of hundreds of dutch soldiers who pressed th
