No, all we ever hear about is what you cut and paste....

"Seven children were being treated in hospital after a car ploughed
into a school group in a village.

A 40-year-old woman was arrested on suspicion of dangerous driving
following the incident in Worlingham, Suffolk, this afternoon.

A police spokeswoman said two of the children, were seriously injured,
with one having two broken legs.
8 children injured after car hit them in Worlingham

The youngsters, aged nine or ten, were hit by the car as they stood
outside All Saints' Church in the village shortly before 2pm. A 21-
year-old man going to a funeral at the time of the incident was also
hurt...

...School headteacher Mike Croft said the youngsters were year five
pupils on a supervised walk aimed at introducing them to the local
area.

He said around 20 pupils - plus a female teacher and female teaching
assistant - were walking past the village church on a pavement when
the accident happened shortly before 2pm..."

So you are saying that the motorist delibratly drove on the pavement?

No I am saying that not even pavements, forget about public roads, are
safe from motorists. There are even cases where motorists have rammed
through the walls of homes and put the people inside at risk. If you
can't be safe in your own home from motorists where can you be safe?

apart when/if removal of aforementioned bi-ped transportation device
is performed. Prat!

I thoroughly agree that the appropriate charge in that case is
manslaughter. But so is it in this case we've just been discussing in
another thread:

http://www.journallive.co.uk/north-e...1634-23580444/

If it is wrong (which I agree it is) that a cyclist is fined only
£2,200 for killing a pedestrian on the pavement, is it not worse that
a motorist is fined only £150 for killing a cyclist on the road?
Manslaughter is, surely, the correct charge in both these cases, and
the correct sentence is surely a life sentence, possibly with only a
short period in prison and the rest suspended.

Maybe sentencing is more lenient for mowing down cyclists to encourage
drivers to keep trying until they hit Doug.

Nah , he was only making his way to the Customer Service Desk. But,
having consumed a fair part of a bottle of whisky, he either forgot to
get out of his car or assumed it was a mobility vehicle.

Reckless cycling on the pavement is so part everyday experience it
isn't worthy of reporting.

Cars running people down on the pavement is so rare its worthy of
making the national news.

It's the frag count that's important.
Though as it's rarer for a cyclist to send pedestrians to hospital it
tends to become more newsworthy. Drivers have to work harder to make the
headlines.

Was that the only punishment he/she received?

The fine for the cyclist will certainly have stood alone with no further
penalty imposed.

Cars kill many more people on footways than bikes do, of course. This
much is well known.

....but cyclists on footways (almost always there by design) threaten and
collide with pedestrians much more frequently then do drivers (whose presence
there is is almost always involuntary after having lost control of the
vehicle whilst on the carriageway).

This much is well known...

....and well-known to be totally irrelevant as to whether it is A Good Thing
for cyclists to deliberately cycle along footways.

I'm sure you agree.
