When the police pull you over for running a red light you can tell them you did it because you were afraid of getting rear-ended by the vehicle behind you. That is, if you even make it across the intersection in one piece which is highly doubtful. I'm sure they would understand that nonsense excuse. The nice officer might even let you go with a warning and a pat on the back just because you made him laugh so hard.

It is much more pleasant than riding in traffic. If you insist on riding like a reckless maniac on highways where cars are traveling at freeway speeds that don't even have so much as a decent bike lane no one can stop you. Have fun playing in traffic with the cars.
