Default Motorist drives along pavement

The unacceptable face of motoring (and some pedestrian groups who
are not au fait with the real dangers those they claim to represent
face) often imply that only cyclists ride along pavements.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/london/4827894.stm is about a
motorist driving along a pavement, in the course of which he injured
six people, one very badly.

True to form the police appear to have already gone out of their way
to excuse the motorist. Other groups in the motoring lobby will no
doubt follow their lead.
