I AM in full agreement with Mr T White (St Helens Star, October 16). Twice I have nearly been knocked off my feet by cyclists approaching from behind me on the pavement.

Once, outside Argos in Church Street, when two hoodies came up behind me riding like maniacs and almost knocked me down. Then, just a few days later, close to Wilkinson.

If on either of these occasions I had moved one step to the left, I wouldn’t have stood a chance and could have ended up with a serious injury. It’s just a matter of time before this happens to an innocent pedestrian and maybe then something will be done about it.
