I agree with Carole Packham (August 24) that cycling on Brighton's roads is dangerous. I gave it up.

However, Brighton and Hove City Council is building more cycle lanes, encouraging motorists to leave their cars at home and use the designated lanes.

The problem highlighted by many Argus correspondents is caused by irresponsible cyclists who don't use the lanes and endanger pedestrians of all ages and fitness.

These people now need some protection and, as the traffic wardens are in the same areas, perhaps they could deal with the problem.
