Lights on bikes.
Driving home tonight from Henry Street onto Dunkenhalgh Way to Clayton, encountered 4 young teenagers on bikes at varying distances. They were riding on the pavements, but did cross the dual carriageway/Blackburn Road dangerously without lights. One was riding a bike (he was the one that nearly met his maker) far too small for his build.
Just a mention, that if you buy your children expensive bikes this Christmas, at least provide them with bl**dy lights !!
Oh yes, and if possible, helmets and high viz jackets. None of these four young cyclists had any of these.
