Frequently, people will pull up to this light, and not stop behind the crosswalk like they are supposed to, but stop in the crosswalk, blocking my path to the sidewalk.

I'm basically just typing this to say I find it very annoying, as I have had to frequently hit the brakes hard at 25mph to compensate for them(it is a long downhill section).

If you were me, would you let it be? Or make good use of the airzound mounted on the bicycle?
That would be rude and interrupt their phone call.


This is the exact reason that got me to realize how dangerous crosswalks and bikes were and got me staying in the road. I see your reason for riding there but nothing you do is going to fix the stupid of the drivers. Be careful.
