Motorist don't know they are suppose to share the road
I can't tell you how many motorists I've spoken to and I explained that cyclist have the same rights as motorist (but we can't go on the highway in Ohio). Guess what? The motorist are really supprised to learn that we have a right to be in the left turn lane or in the street or to take over a lane if necessary.
They honestly believe that we are suppose to stay on the bike path in the park at all times- (a slight, but not too far from the truth, overstatement there).
Honestly, there should be a movement to get the BMV to include this information in motorist training manuals and the BMV should pass out literature when motorist renew their licenses. Better yet, motorist should be retested every 3 years (written test) as an opportunity to learn of new laws. This is important and I know someone is going to blast me about that last statement but that is how I feel so there you have it.
