Letter: Selfish parkers

Sir In the correspondence on the danger of bikes on pavements the matter of cars on pavements has not been addressed.

Every street suffers to some degree from cars parking on the pavement. This is dangerous, illegal and selfish. We cannot let car users get away with letting us believe that they are not also a danger on the pavements. Stopping bikes and cars using pavements would make them a far safer place for those who should be using them - pedestrians.
