  3. bike riders want all the perks while riding in the street..yet they don’t follow the basic traffic laws..you want drivers to share the road, bike riders need to do just that share the road not hog it…

    • I don’t think share the road means what you think it means. Riding in the middle of the lane is the correct way to do it 99% of the time, its not hogging the road. Rest assured if a rider has the confidence to take the lane they most likely know a whole lot more about the CVC than you do.

    • I think it’s fair to also say that there are plenty of motorists who don’t follow basic traffic laws. Every time I walk, ride my bike or drive anywhere, I see motorists running red lights, speeding, blocking crosswalks, switching lanes without first signaling and texting or using handheld cell phones while driving. Is there room for improvement within the cycling community? Sure. Is there room for improvement in the motoring community? You bet.
