Sidewalks and tickets.
Who the HELL has ever been ticketed/hit by a vehicle on a sidewalk?...
I know it's illegal BLAH BLAH, but the more I cycle the more I think, I'm getting on that sidewalk when I'm uncomfortable with traffic.
The rest of you can tout your laws and proper regulations to some other idiots, it's all about what's SAFEST. Here, we have 1 street in a 50 mile radius with a few miles of bike path, and they are pleased with themselves. It's full of debris.
Effing Beaumont Texas.
Also, I firmly believe the introduction of bike lanes into a community further pervade the concensus that we don't 'belong' there at all.
