Riding on pavement query

hassanr now the real question is why is it that every single time i get on the pavement for 10 meters at about 2mph to get to my door, there's a cop waiting there to yell at me and threaten me, but the local yokels on holloway road can ride in groups of up to 8 at about 15mph for as long as they want, and i've not once seen them even get harrassed for it. and they are actually posing a danger. anyone?

Your sargent has told you that there have been numeous complaints of bikes on the pavement in your locality - the complaints are more than likely about the gangs of kids doing 15mph through the shoppers.

You - PC hassanr - are told to crack down on this kind of thing when you see it.

You are an easier target than the gangs of pavement monkeys.
