DRIVERS and pedestrians already face enough perils on our congested streets. Pavement cyclists, selfish parkers and, as another story illustrates tonight, less-than-intelligent bollards are regular York hazards.
Now we must look out for a new danger: mini motorbikes. These expensive toys are fun in a safe environment but are an accident-in-waiting in traffic.
York police are right to be worried by youngsters who ride them on our roads. They must be made to recognise that they are putting people at real risk - not least themselves.
