If your state has a law, write to a local representative and ask him WTF? What are you supposed to do? Wait for a car which might never come?
He will probably tell to to take a right, do u turn, then take a right.
If you really care (or are worried about a ticket) get all your local cycling clubs to call and write.
Everyone says "So proud to be an American" but to be a good American you are supposed to actually participate in government.
Look how many states have gotten Idaho Stop laws.
