(naively unaware) So you have helped me re-think some of my more questionable habits: "California" stops at stop signs, but for some reason not at red lights....(this next one will be hard to break) Riding on the right past a line of slow moving or stopped cars. "Ha! You're in gridlock, but I, on my bike, am not!" That is sooo satisfying! Unsafe, but satisfying.


Anyway, thanks for your well thought out & incredibly detailed posts on vehicular cycling I will be getting hold of some of your recommended books.

Just how would you wait at that line of cars, backed up a half mile to the traffic light, with a bike lane running along the right side to withon 150 feet of the light?
