Your chasing your tail when you harp on cyclist for saying 'same roads same rights' while ignoring that extremely few motorist accept the contract while you are demanding all cyclist follow the contract. Especially when FRAP and bike lane laws are designed to make cyclist subservient to motorist.
Actually my post didn't favor either cyclists or motorists. Some people will behave like jerks regardless of what they ride. One thing I do have very little use for is people who think the world centers around them. There are almost 7 billion other people in the world - it shouldn't be all that tough to show a little consideration for the few we trip across on a daily basis. It really doesn't matter if you believe in God or evolution or reincarnation - when you get down to it - antisocial behavior is nothing short of suicide.
