Read the article. Allegro cleary states he had no intention of following the law.
Here in Boston we have adult bicyclists riding the sidewalks. They feel safer than being on the street with cars. They endanger pedestrians especially children.

Bicyclists need regulation. Adult ones should also pay fees for road maintenance.
