Sure. Can I knock over all the cyclists I see talking with their buddies while riding, who don't even look where they are going?

If you've ever looked over your shoulder to chat while riding, or for that matter if you've EVER uttered a word on a moving bike, don't be throwing stones at the guy who rides with his eyes front while talking. Before we get into the whole "Cell phones are the Devil" kneejerk, think about what I am asking, and what the mechanics would entail. A hands-free headset is less distracting than holding a phone to your head, and certainly less dangerous than riding two abreast while chatting and not even looking where you are going.

I do thank you for your suggestions, though.
