The West End's member of the Legislature is calling for the cops to step up enforcement when it comes to cyclists illegally riding on the sidewalk.
Spencer Chandra Herbert has written a letter to Vancouver Police Chief Jim Chu, questioning why cops issued nearly 1,500 tickets to contrary cyclists on the east side last year, but only a dozen to downtown residents.
"That to me is a massive discrepancy, a massive variable, and it's a problem."
Herbert says his constituents have complained about transgressing two wheelers knocking over old ladies and even running into strollers -- and it's time the VPD steps up to educate or enforce as necessary.
