Just so long as passing speeds are reasonable, and so long as folks don't put others in danger. At which point, I fully expect such folks to be just as accountable as anyone else putting others at risk with close and/or overly-fast operation for the conditions.
Good step. At some point, it was bound to happen, simply given the trends in bike sales.
Yeah, but ‘accountable’ usually means subject to judgement by those injured by the accountable rider. Then you get into the issue of mandatory insurance which brings in a cascade of regulations, registration, licensing etc. I don’t like where this is all headed: a secondary mechanized highway system.
