Bicyclists (lunatics) in the Bay Area get no sympathy from me. They’re a nuisance and they make themselves nuisances, especially in San Francisco!

“Bicyclists (lunatics) in the Bay Area get no sympathy from me. They’re a nuisance and they make themselves nuisances, especially in San Francisco!”

I’d like to know exactly how many tickets get issued each year to bicyclists, who are almost uniformly required to obey the rules of the road while they are on a PUBLIC ROAD.

Same here in San Antonio, Texas. It is a very rare thing to see a bicyclist comply with traffic laws. This week alone I’ve had two run stop signs right in front of me. Of over a minimum of a hundred bicyclists I’ve only seen two that actually stopped at a red light. As a motorcyclist I’m keenly aware of how we two wheelers are ignored. There’s simply no reason whatever to magnify your chances of being seriously injured. I don’t know why but most of these cyclist are very foolish.
