IN reply to the letter ‘Do you want a safer Leigh?’
I am a mature cyclist and motorist and I agree with what Former Cyclist said.
As a cyclist one of my pet hates is watching adults riding on the pavements and at night riding without lights. I think it should be an on-the-spot fine and/or their bikes confiscated.
Having said that, I’ve spoken to police about it and was told they tend to ignore it because it’s not worth the paperwork.
