Am I the only one here who breaks traffic rules?

I'm sure I'm at least in the minority.

Honestly I get a very huge rush from maneuvering traffic and taking risks when I ride. I'm that guy that rides between cars waiting at lights and then waits for a break in traffic rather than a light change. I've always been more concerned with making sure that I don't disrupt the flow of traffic rather than abiding by the traffic laws. I'm the most at risk on the road anyway. This is how I've always done it.

Ironically, the only time I've been in an accident was when I wasn't breaking traffic laws and riding on a bike path running parallel to a road and a driver didn't yield and pulled out into me. We had made eye contact when I was approaching his driveway but his excuse was that he wasn't expecting me to be going so fast.
