Keep Your Bicycles Off The Sidewalk!!!

Yeah, this happens in Hamilton, too. Sometimes I wish I could "inadvertently" knock them off their wheels. Would probably be easy to do if I used a quad cane and had eyes in the back of my head...

We probably have the same problem, but not as extensively as you do. For one thing, not so many people go anywhere without their car. We have signs painted on the sidewalk downtown, but I do not know haw many actually use them as intended. I am sorry that this happens to you, and I find the comment about the spikey cane hilarious.

oh lord,do we.it's illegal,but the lazy cops don't get off their butts and enforce it. to make it worse,now the recent immigrants from mexico are doing it too. i've never been to mexico,but i'd be willing to bet it's illegal there also. but they see everyone else do it,so they follow suit. between that and the power mom superstrollers,there's almost no room to walk anymore.

hi d anish canadain second time for making this same response gremlin ate my first one now copy I do not have as bad a vision problem as y ou but I have a bad left leg in a heavy brace so Its hard for me to dodge fast moving bikes that zip alongon the sidewalk. One young woman on a bike crowded me and actually ran into m yright leg below the knee and the pain knocked me to the ground. I had one hell of a time trying to get to my feet.She had to finally actuall lift me to myhfeet. I had a big fat bruise and swelling just below my right knee.She just calmly got back on her b ike and zipped back down the sidewalk. A police car stopped and the lady officer asked me if I was okay.Then she took off after the young woman on the bike, I did not stay to see what happened next as I was on my way to college.At that time i was in my fourties but had that bad leg gr a lon g time which was a real handicap as I could not move with agility..

We don't have that many bike riders, and the ones we do have, for the most part, stay on the street.

I see people all the time riding, their bicycles on the side walk, and the police does nothing about it,I even see the old people riding their bike in the street which they are suppose to do, now I don't think these people on motor wheelchair are suppose to be, riding in the street they will get hit, they are suppose to be on the side walk, I saw a old man the other day in the street, with his wheel chair and he didn't know which way, he wanted to go, and cars had to wait until he, got out of the way so they wouldn't hit him.
