Two wheels bad

Next official policy: which cyclists do we hate the most?
‘I read that you’re planning to name and shame cyclists who ride on the pavement. I’d be far more interested if you were to name and shame cyclists who do use the road, but who think that traffic lights don’t apply to them,’ says Martin Elliott, at Miller Insurance.
‘I’ve lost count of the number of times I’ve nearly been hit by cyclists who weave their way through pedestrians who think that when the green man is showing it is safe to cross the road,’ he adds, with a few exclamation marks we removed.

In Japan where I live this is what actually happens. Cyclists ride on the pavement and accidents do happen of course all the time.

In Japan where I live there is a strange Greek man who is always getting in the way of cyclists as they try to ride down the cycle paths. He is the cause of many accidents!
