Adam Trimingham stated that only a minority of cyclists ignored red lights and one-way systems, were unlit at night, rode on the pavement and so on (The Argus, August 8).

Sorry, Adam, you used the wrong word. The correct one is majority.

Last Wednesday afternoon, I was twice nearly flattened by cyclists riding dangerously on the pavement, a perfectly adequate cycle lane being feet away.

All this was accompanied by the usual vulgar outburst demonstrating their paucity of both intellect and command of the English language.
