Well duh
, of course I stop at stop signs. I never said anything about crosswalks when
I have a stop sign. Bicycles here are subject to the same laws as cars. We have crosswalks at every main intersection, whether there is a stop sign or not. Most of the bike riders here are adults, not kids (what difference does it make how old they are), and regardless of their age, they are not supposed to ride down the sidewalk from a cross street, (they are not supposed to ride on sidewalks, which are for pedestrians, at all) through a stop sign that
they have, and into the crosswalk, expecting cars to stop for them because they are in a crosswalk, as if they were pedestrians! I
always stop for pedestrians in, or waiting to use, a crosswalk even if I have no stop sign. Besides being courteous, it's the law here.
