If you read it, you will see that PCSOs have the power (rather the designated power) to issue FPNs to cyclists for cyling on footpaths.
They do not have the authority to issue FPNs for other traffic offences.
They can only stop a person on a cycle for cycling on a footpath too.
You can fuck with a PCSO by demanding to see their designated authority card, without which they have none...
