I see it regularly several times daily. On Tuesday morning this

week on my way to work I also saw a schoolboy waiting at a zebra crossing, knocked over by a cyclist on the pavement who was going to cycle across the road on the same crossing. The cyclist was even wearing a helmet cam, bet that tape has been wiped!

During the summer, my 76 year old Mother in Law was hit by a cyclist cycling on the pavement in Aberdeen. Luckily he only caught her a glancing blow and my wife stopped her falling, but this t**t looked at us like we hade no right to be there.

The point is that there are c**tish drivers and c**tish cyclists, but saying that c**tish cyclists are likely to cause less harm by their illegal behavior, doesn't in any justify it.
