You're making my point for me. Were the rules followed? Nope. You are erroneously assuming that I take the opposite end of the argument being made, when in fact I mean to take the middle ground of neutrality. We're talking about commuting here, not philanthropy or altruism, for fook's sake stop all this "well they should be nice to me while I'm riding my bike" and "well I'm nicer to other people on the road than you." Sounds like a little girl's tea party up in here.

Astute observation.
