It's *NOT* at their own risk. Who else are they risking?

Hint, when you see a BST rolling a stop sign you see the external risk to others clearly, so *WHY* don't you see the external risk to others when a bicycle is doing the rolling.

Double hint - fast forward, you are a pensioner walking across the road. Did *YOU* choose to be a rollee?
