Lots of footpaths on the continent have a line down the middle, one half for pedestrians, one half for cyclists. It's hardly rocket science, like.
In some places the footpaths are wide enough to accommodate both but presumably the cyclist has no right to be on the footpath even if it's a lot safer there than on the road avoiding parked cars while at the same time looking out for the moving ones..

I actually make a point of it when I'm on my bike to break red lights or mount the footpath if I don't feel like stopping. Drivers are just jealous of us. Same goes for cycling side by side. It's legal and we've as much right to the road as any other vehicle.
Reading all these comments has actually reignited my passion for winding up drivers. I'm going to be doubly obnoxious on my bicycle.
Ban earphones for cyclists and pedestrians
They can't hear what the hell is going on
I don't think anyone is seriously arguing that people aren't less aware of what's going on around them with headphones or loud music on, are they?
By that logic listening to music should also be banned while driving.
We're beating around the bush here. Driving should be illegal.
So should everything else.
