Cyclist Fined for Dangerous Riding Near Prams

A 43-year-old cyclist, Daniel Kennedy, has been fined £120 for dangerous cycling in Liverpool after he rode aggressively towards families with babies in prams while attempting to evade police.

On July 8, police observed Kennedy cycling at high speed along the pavement on Aigburth Road while using his phone. When approached by officers, he swerved into traffic and mounted the pavement, forcing a family to quickly move aside to avoid injury.

Kennedy was apprehended after he fell off his bike. He pleaded guilty to the charges through a written statement and did not provide any mitigation during the court proceedings.
