Bicycles do not belong on the sidewalk, and in many cities it is unlawful
to
ride them there. Everywhere I've been bicycles belong on the road and are
required to follow motor vehicle laws.
They certainly belong on the sidewalk since they can't even come close
to the legal speed limit. Why do you think everyone hates them?
It's not because they look stupid, it's because they seem to enjoy
causing unsafe conditions on the roads!
Man you must have had a rotten childhood... to suggest such a thing.. The
man is RIGHT.. THEY ARE NOT PERMITTED ON THE SIDEWALK! THEY ARE TO FOLLOW
THE RULES OF THE ROAD AS ALL OTHER USERS. YOU MUST SUFFER FROM ROAD RAGE.
WOULD LOVE TO RIDE BEHIND YOU FOR A DAY TO WATCH YOUR HABITS. I BET THEY
WOULD SHOCK MOST.
My childhood was wonderful, I rode my bike on the sidewalk!
As for now, I drive approximately 150 miles a day and poses a safe driver
endorsement on my license, no tickets in over ten years!
None of that changes the fact a pack of morons on bikes going 10MPH on a
road designated for 50 MPH causes a safety issue for everyone involved!
Don't the rules of the road specify a MINIMUM speed?
Don't you feel 50 riders clogging an entire lane is a problem?
I personally love when some impatient ahole passes around them into
oncoming traffic..
