Georgia's motorists are being "educated" regarding cyclist's rights to the road. The Governor's Office of Highway Safety has funded Atlanta Bicycle Campaign to promote the project in the 10 county metro-Atlanta area.
We did a random survey (phone and mass mailing) in the Decatur and Avondale Estates areas "testing" motorist's knowledge of general road rules and motorist's/cyclist's use of the roads. The scores improved ~21% from what it was before the mass mailing, which included the new bumper sticker. Not the best design but no one asked for my input.

We are also putting this poster (one of a series of four) in several bus shelters along the roads in Decatur and Tucker. There's one on Mountain Industrial Blvd just a few yards north of Ponce de Leon where the bike path to Stone mountain crosses Mountain Industrial Blvd.

<edit> I saw another poster yesterday (on the bike path) at the bus shelter on Ponce de Leon, about a block west of Mountain Industrial Blvd. </edit>


Progress is slow but we're doing all we can with the limited resources.
