Re: ‘Cyclist and walkers told to share' (The Sun, November 29). A ‘bell' could be the simple means of bringing harmony to pedestrians and cyclists on all shared walkways.
When approaching walkers from the rear at speed, cyclists become annoyed when they don't step aside. Walkers are given great frights when cyclists zoom past without giving warning of their approach thus a potential crash or injury.

Once upon a time a bicycle bell was compulsory, yet now with so many types, styles and uses of bicycles, a warning device has been deemed redundant. Bring back the bell.
