Yes definitely, it is safer for them on the footpath.

Yes, you hear about a lot of incidents with cars hitting bikes and you want to eliminate that as much as possible.

Yes I think they should be allowed to bike on the footpath, anyone should be able to because it is too dangerous on the road these days.

Yes, when we were younger that's what we used to do, it's safer.

Karen Walmsley

We did that when we were young. It's just what we did and we didn't wear helmets either. But to be quite honest I don't think they should. Footpaths are for pedestrians.
