"The driver whose dashboard camera recorded the incident off Lockwood Road

GOSH!!! NEVER!

"Mirfield councillor Martyn Bolt, himself a keen cyclist and a trustee of
the charity Cycling UK, urged all road users to be mindful of safety
concerns as the darker months draw in."

and then cyclist feels safer then they can"

Just take a look at the gormless face of the "keen cyclist"/councillor who
came out with this ****. Typical brain dead sponging cyclist who probably
lives in a stinking council house.

Pure stupidity rides a kids toy. Pure stupidity is a cyclist. And this
stupid cyclist is a councillor!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If your linked item doesn't qualify as 'fake news' then I think it
should get through as a 'storm in a teaspoon'.

The story is essentially one of yet another idiot unlawfully riding
their bicycle - at least this one has the virtue of being highly
visible - on the pavement. To pad out the story they've managed to
find a bias councillor who would not have otherwise condoned this
action... and that's about it. Hardly breaking news.
