I was visited by a bloke from my local "Labour Team".
He asked me if I had any grievances. If I had, he would raise the issue. I said that I have a problem with cyclists blasting up and down on the footpath in this area. Adult apes as well as kids. Wait for it................................................ ... He told me that it is legal for a person to ride on the footpath up to the age of 18 and that he is a cyclist. I advised the bell-end to read the Highways Act. He offered me his hand, I declined. It is scary that such a political person could be so stupid. But, he is a cyclist. |

I had a similar problem with a PCSO woman, she had no idea that riding electric scooters in a public place is illegal. |
