When do you expect someone who is probably taking their child to day care on the way to work to ride, other than when everyone is going to work?
Do you know for sure that there are alternate routes available to the cyclist from where he's coming from to where he's going? If not, what is the problem?
If cars are passing within 1 foot, the drivers need to be ticketed for unsafe passing of another legal vehicle.
