The "far worse" arguement is BS. As for needing a license, this type of behavior could be used as grounds to move in that direction.

He is wreckless. End of story.

So what if his size is smaller than a car. His wreckless riding causes the cars around him to make evasive manuevers which could result in them running into someone else. Harming or killing someone else.

Then he has the unmitigated gaul to point out other law breakers.

You mention the silly chopper at the dangerous intersection. However you omit the fact that you were running a red light (big surprise) and that he had the right of way.

I find it amusing that fans of this style of riding will be the first ones to point a finger at wreckless cagers.

I also ride a motorcycle. It is nearly as manueverable as a bicycle. Actually, in some ways it is moreso. So, should I be permitted to ride it like this in heavy traffic? I have done some lane splitting on it and don't have a problem with that, but, wreckless light running is a different story.

Good luck, joey. You'll need it. And thanks, by the way, for creating new anti-bikers on a daily basis.

BTW, have you made burial arrangements yet? If so, you might wanna find someplace nicer than that absolute shytewhole of a cemetery you rode through. It is easily the dumpiest cemetery I have ever seen.
