the course of the inquest the evidence revealed matters giving rise to concern. In my opinion there is a risk that future deaths will occur unless action is taken. _ During the course of evidence it was stated that motor cycles on pathways in this area was a constant problem; (2) motor was travelling at 68 mph at point of impact; (3) It was approximately 13.30 The area is residential and it is reasonable to assume that the pathway is used by children, the infirm and pensioners; As a result am concerned that there is a risk of death to pedestrians using the pathway appropriately
