I wish I had a nickel for every cyclist that I see NOT abiding by common
traffic laws. I wish more people would cycle, but I must say that the
current cyclists have a bad rap for stopping at stop signs, staying
stopped at red lights, absent proper hand signals, and worst of all is
LEANING UP AGAINST MY CAR AT A LIGHT WHILE TALKING ON THEIR CELLPHONE!
There is a reason why Atlanta is worst for cyclists, it's because the
drivers are fed up with them. :-)
