It puts motorists in jeopardy to have to anticipate and deal with that behavior. It's about time someone cracks down on them.
So I'm not a hater, so stop being such a blind reactionist, SR!  |
Not a hater either. Bicycles are supposed to follow the same laws as a motor vehicle including stop signs, traffic lights, signaling a turn, etc. When was te last time you saw a bicyclist signal a turn?
I love it the rare times I have seen cop ticketing one,generally for running a stop sign or light. Bikes not stopping can cause an accident behind the dumb ass.
I can understand a little when they are pumping up a hill with momentum and there is a stop sign in the middle of it and no one around, but geeze, going down a hill or on the flats ???
