Subject: RE: BS: Bleeping Cyclist
Cyclists do not now what brakes are for ans expect us inferior pedestrians to respect their right to not have to slaw down. As I am lucky enough to not be frail and do not need assistance for walking, I do not have the means to accidently poke a walking stick through the wheel spokes.

I have heard that one of the causes of food delivery riders not giving a toss about pedestrians safety is that they have to meet unreasonable delivery times or lose pay.

In UK we have laws that mean that householders that use unlicensed disposal services the go on to flytip rubbish can be heavily fined. We need similar laws which means that people who order takeways which are deivered by inconsiderate riders who are caught breaking the law face similar fines. having to pay $1,000 for a takeaway will discourage customers from buying from cafes/restaurants that fo not poperly supervise their riders.
