Is there a Hull resident who could comment.

Not a resident - I live between two Yorkshire villages, but I do ride
in that area from time to time, but never on the pavements, so not
really of concern to me at all.

I would have thought that everyone should be concerned about people who
break the law.

Why should I worry about people breaking the law miles away?
The Police have the powers to impose spot fines over a minor nuisance
somewhere and I should lose sleep over it?
How odd.

Cyclists breaking the law is only a monor nuisance, why is it no
suprise that this is a cyclists answer.

Do you consider a three year old riding their bike on the pavement
outside their home a serious nuisance?

The word "serious" has to be qualified by the circumstances.

If the house were an isolated dwelling in the coiuntryside with a short
stretch of footway outside, probably not.

In a suburb, maybe. It would depend on who else needs to use the footway,
including pedestrians, bus-users, vehicles crossing the footway to gaiun
access to driveways, etc.

Any parent, though, who chooses to let a 3-yr-old out onto the highway on a
bike needs their head testing. Did you really mean *three* years old?

In that case we are in agreement.

It was a hypothetical question. I would have expected you to
understand that - clearly I misjudged, and for that I am sorry.

No need to be "sorry". My answer was also hypothetical. I am sorry and
surprised that you could not understand that.

The appropriate use of a childs toy by a child is fine. Its when anti
social adults try using childrens toys as a form of transport on modern
roads that the problems occur.

My child's toy is extremely useful and convenient.

Absolutely. They should be forced onto the road amongst the cycle-
haters such as Hagfish, Medway and Cheerless. I lay awake worrying
about pavement cycling - it is the major criminal activity facing us
in these barren times.

That's right - those kiddies' trikes should be taxed, insured and MOT
tested. Their riders should wear builder's vests with registration
numbers on and be fined heavily for riding on the pavements. The
trikes should also have big motorbike number plates fixed to them,
front and rear so they can be traced and the kid fined two weeks
pocket money. They are the biggest cause of sleepless nights for
curtain twitchers up and down the land. Today's pavement toddler is
tomorrow's Nova driving hoodie.

Stupid pill overdose again.

Children using their push bikes for their intended purpose - as toys -
do not terrify pedestrians. Immature anti social adults on push bikes
do on a regular basis.

Standard cyclists diversionary tactic.
