16 per cent of London cyclists admit to hitting a pedestrian

I wonder what percent of motorists have accidentally damaged a vehicle while out driving. My wife has managed this three times in the last 16 months alone. |

I gave a direct quote from the article - are you disputing it? Here it is again: Its survey also revealed that 13 per cent of cyclists have accidentally damaged a vehicle while out riding, and 16 per cent confessing to hitting a pedestrian with their bike. Excellent value as ever - ****wittery at its best. |
