I ride a bike because I am unemployed and can't afford a car. I have always
been told people get ****ed because I ride on the sidewalk and should be riding in the street. It is getting bad on the road because people and bicycles do not count as anything significant in the minds of drivers. While drivers must drive defensively, bicyclists and pedestrians need to be twice as vigilant and clairvoyant because of the drivers . I find that being extra patient and non-territorial keeps me pretty safe. I have to say also, that some bicyclists use very little of their grey matter sometimes. This is especially so with the very young who dare someone to say anything to them about darting in and out of traffic as if the angels were riding right behind them. The first thing that needs to happen is that law enforcement needs to educate drivers, pedestrians and bicyclists about their rights and responsibilities on the road. I would fully support having the men-in-black come over to that station, kicking down the door, cuffing the moron and dragging him off to prison for the rest of his life without trial or kto lose his life just as suddenly, and to disappear forever. |

I have a much better idea just take his drivers license away and make him ride a bicycle to work. That should do it. -- Telamon Ventura, California |
