I READ with interest that an MP was making a law for cyclists who kill pedestrians.
A cyclist from Cyclox said this was a waste of time as only one person had been knocked down and killed by a cyclist. However, this is denying that cyclists are dangerous when cycling on the pavement.
One second you can be walking on the pavement, and the next second a cyclist goes fast by you and gives you a shock.
This is not good for people with heart conditions, and can be a problem for the blind.
Perhaps we could have a law giving cyclists a hefty fine if they injure a pedestrian?
