Again I'm not arguing, but I'm not making mindless posts about imaginary departments doing their best either.

It doesn't even have to go as far as fines, the police could remind cyclists to use the road and warn them against using pavements.

Just feel prevention and education on this subject is better than cure.
Prevention means surely get off and stay off the pavement?

Education? well, if the police do their job of reminding them that is education.

Better than Cure? There is nothing difficult about the cure apply the existing laws. How many innocent pedestrians will have to come to harm, before we once more have the sensible rules of pavements enforced?
