Running cycles down is attempted murder.

Throwing bottles at riders is assault with a deadly weapon.

LETHAL FORCE is justified to thwart such attacks.


There you go, pull out your gun and open fire on the motorist
honking their horn at you to get the hell out of the road!

That will help your plight!

Perhaps after a few incidences like that, the law makers will
get off their asses and pass some legislation to get you
morons OFF the road and ON the sidewalk where you belong.



In many areas around here, Bicycle riding on the sidewalks is "NOT"
permitted. When I was a young man, the rules for riding bicycles were taught
to use ON THE ROAD! Riding "with" traffic for one thing, on the side of the
road, having a mirror for viewing what is behind you, and so on. Even taught
turn signals by hand.. Those rules aren't taught anymore, like so many
things that aren't taught and should be. THAT is a large part of the
problem, NO ONE CARES! In some cities, at least the ones I know of and have
been to, the pedestrians wouldn't have a chance with the cycles on the
sidewalks. Especially the elderly and handicapped. The rules of the road
apply to all who use them, EVERY ONE must pay attention and exercise care.
Sadly, this isn't the case. It is every man for himself anymore. ROAD
RAGE!!!!!

Hitting people "intentionally" on a bicycle IS attempted murder at the
least. You have to be a kook to even applaud such and action. Maybe that is
one of your kids or relatives one day. It always comes back home, you
know.....

For that D.J. to suggest such a thing, he was an ass to say the least.. Our
CC stations here do some wild stuff, but NOTHING to condone injuring others.
Matter of fact, they look down on those things. So it isn't CC doing it,
it's the idiots they have at that particular station.

I did and got an auto response, your servers spam block won't let it go

To Edna or whoever you are....

I "AM" a law maker here locally, and I'll tell you. SIDEWALKS are for
PEDESTRIANS. WE DO NOT ALLOW bicycles on our sidewalks.. SO WE ARE NOT ON
OUR DEAD ASSES. WE ARE DOING OUR JOBS. Bicycles being on the road, is
nothing new. It's been that way for YEARS. YOU need to get a life and learn
how to deal with society. YOU are not the sole inhabitant here. IF you can't
deal with that then you may want to consider seeking some therapy or Prozac
or both. I'm sure glad you don't live here. I can just about imagine what
fun we would have. And I don't mean in the humorous way. Lou

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..

So you want to beat me up for my opinion that you aholes
belong on the sidewalk, and not doing 5 - 10 MPH on a road designated
for 50 MPH?
I'll bet you do that in your car as well!
If anyone needs help, it is you guys who thinking creating an unsafe traffic
situation FOR YOUR SOLE benefit is OK!
I guess bikers are just a bunch of folks who feel the world owes them something.
Their are lots of designated bike routes for you guys that cars are exempt from. Use them.

We have way too many laws on the books in the US already.

If the cyclists would just realize that they are causing a problem,
and start using courtesy and reasonable discretion in choosing where
to ride, then no new restrictions would be needed, and public
animosity toward them would go away.

Cyclists on roads with a designated bike lane present no hazard or
obstruction, and those who want a downhill thrill can find steep
places (like a ski run during the summer) where there will not be any
hikers and uphill riders to mow down.

A much bigger problem, though, is slow moving vehicles, leaving a
recreation area. Their mirrors should tell them that traffic is
backing up, but they don't pull at the next turnout and let people
pass.
