Prick.

There is no substance to your argument sir.


What argument?


What the law should apply to.

The law should apply to lawbreakers.

Not big ones.


even a 'small' accident can kill. Which is why there are rules to
keep the majority safe, breaking the rules increases the chances of
a crash/injury or death.


CAN. Not likely. Cars cause more and bigger accidents, concentrate
on them.


This is a cycle group

That's a very common thing for law-breaking cyclists to say, here and
elsewhere.

In real-world situations where cyclists encounter pedestrians on the
footways or on pedestrian crossings, it tends to be varied to "**** off"
or "Get out of my way, ****".


Perhaps that in indicative of the type of people why cycle on footways
or on pedestrian crossings?

My own cycling encounters with pedestrians are always amicable. It is
only drivers who seem to get vexed from time to time.

You haven't quite grasped the concept yet have you?

If you ride a push bike, you are automatically an idiot. It's a given.

Sensible people don't ride pushbikes.

Dave - Cyclists VOR. "Many people barely recognise the bicycle as a
legitimate mode of transport; it is either a toy for children or a
vehicle fit only for the poor and/or strange," Dave Horton, of Lancaster
University, wrote in an interim assessment of the Understanding Walking
and Cycling study. "For them, cycling is a bit embarrassing, they fail
to see its purpose, and have no interest in integrating it into their
lives, certainly on a regular basis."

To a certain extent I can agree with you.

Sensible people don't ride pushbikes.

Cycling is not ‘sensible’.

If the law doesn't apply to something, then the lawbreaker is no longer breaking a law.

I have never annoyed a pedestrian and I frequently cycle on the pavement. It's very easy to go round them.

CO2 emissions aren't a problem. CO2 is supposed to be there. It feeds plants for ****s sake! If greenies want plants to be healthy, we need MORE CO2! They pump CO2 into greenhouses to make plants grow better!
