That sounds dangerous, evil too. Are you being serious?

Thats well dressed?? I didn't think she was very articulate either, though I couldn't recognise anytime when she wasn't ranting.

What struck me about the video was that the woman was so worked up about the guy riding on foothpaths, while I was thinking, is that even illegal? Pedestrians often think its dangerous, but the data from places where it is allowed doesn't support that perception. Now I've read that it is legal in Illinois, so the woman is ranting about nothing - and what a shame that neither the cyclist or the cop corrects her (as far as I know, I got bored and skipped some bits). Unfortunately its all too common for police and cyclists to not know bicycle laws.
