It's time wedemanded police action

I wrote to the police authority in Lewes and was passed on to the inspector at Bognor police station. I complained: nothing happened.

I wrote to Nick Gibb MP. Mr Gibb wrote to the local council and to the police. Guess what: nothing happened.

I complained to the police who visited the estate last year. Once again, nothing happened.

Now a young child has been injured.

I have had near misses over the years along Rowan Way, Bognor Regis. The comment from the local council was '˜maybe people felt safer cycling on the footpath rather than the road'.

After asking the police to do something about the cyclists, I have come to the conclusion we must demand they enforce the law.

If my dog fouls the footpath, I could pay a fine of 1,000. A cyclist pays only 30 as a fine for cycling on the footpath.

These fines should be reversed as a dog fouling the footpath is unlikely to cause a fatal accident.

I can't see why the council can't just paint a white line all the way along the prom next to the beach for bikes.

Four-wheelers are allowed to bomb up and down the prom and not get told off, and they go faster than most bikes.

Stop penalising the cyclist and making them risk their lives on the road with the dangerous drivers.
