A large proportion of the population of England and Wales perceived problems in their area with some form of ASB. Over three-quarters (76%) perceived one or more of the 16 types of behaviour to be a problem. Over a third (36%) said one or more was a ‘very big’ problem. The most widely perceived individual problem was with speeding traffic (Figure 3.2 and Table A3.1). Forty-three per cent of the population regarded this as a ‘very’ or ‘fairly big’ problem in their local area (12% regarded it as a ‘very big’ problem). Between a quarter and a third of the population regarded parked cars, rubbish, fireworks, vandalism, teenagers hanging around, drug use or dealing and uncontrolled dogs or dog mess to be problems (between 6% and 10% regarded these as ‘very big’ problems).
Someone then cross-posted the thread, and look what happened.
I've posted the link again since, to the cross-posted part of the thread, where it was completely ignored. Maybe they need to see it as the first post in a thread. Yeah, go for it :-)

Not going to affect me at this stage because I'm off on hols and by the time I'm back it should be tailing off.

I'm sorry, I appear to have come into the wrong newsgroup.
Can anyone direct me to uk.rec.cycling?
This appears to be uk.random.statistics.that.have.bugger.all.to.do.with.cycling
