WHILE walking though the Christmas market in the Southampton precinct today, I was nearly hit by three idiots on cycles, weaving in and out of the many pedestrians.

Two of the cyclists were even on mobile phones, with one hand controlling their cycles.

What these idiots have for brains is beyond me.

Before long there will be a serious accident – do something about it Southampton Council.

Maybe I should not complain as, the way the law is heading and I get hit by a cyclist, I would probably get charged with violating the human rights of the cyclist by causing an obstruction to him.
