You are opening the bee's nest. You will be able to group all the responses into 3 categories:
1. Yes, you were wrong. If bikes are ever to be respected we must follow the rules of the road!
2. No, you were right. Screw the rules of the road, I do what I want!
3. Maybe. Were you really extra careful? Did you slow down and look first? It depends on the situation.
There you have it. You can close the thread now.
