Methinks otherwise... many of those affected motorists will be furious that a pack of cyclists flaunts the law.

Next time you and your pals ride like the OP described, take some good video.

Go to the next city council meeting, stand up and tell the council how you and your buddies love to blow through red lights en masse, obstruct cars by crawling along at a whopping 20 MPH in a 45 MPH zone, etc etc etc. Show the video while you brag about what a raging stallion you are for riding like that.

Invite the local police to come and watch your next ride; tell them when and where you'll be riding.

Then invite public comment to see how many folks will be on your side.

If you are afraid to do any of the above then you don't believe your own BS.

Outlaw packs of riders that obstruct traffic, blow through red lights en masse, and otherwise engage in mass lawless behavior ought to be in jail, not on the roads.

If you choose to ride like the OP described, then that is your choice. But don't deceive yourself by thinking that it isn't unsafe or illegal, or that the motorists that you obstruct don't care.
