> Studies in Delaware and Idaho have shown significant decreases in crashes at stop-controlled intersections.

Seems like the introduction of the law got people to think about cyclists because lunatics will fly through stop signs and ignore yields. Now that they can do it legally, you have to be more mindful, leading to less accidents.

These laws are asinine. Cyclists are such a problem where I live. They believe they are entitled to the road like a 3000 pound car, they slow traffic down, they create jams at intersections, they don't pay attention and fly through cross walks, etc.

You should need to be licensed to use a bicycle. There are far too many stupid people. My favorite example of this from recent history was pulling out to take a right turn, stopping, and right as I'm rolling out to commence the turn a bicyclist FLIES past me such that 1" in any direction would've probably killed him.

This is such a terrible and uninformed comment. Your complaint against people on bikes is that they think they're entitled to use the road at all? Holy smokes, yeah people on bikes are so entitled by insisting on existing in any shape or form? What a selfish and arrogant attitude, shame on you. Cyclists are not the problem with the North American transportation system, cars are.

Stay mad imo. Bicyclists should be licensed and insured just like cars. They pose a danger to everyone around them just like cars, and should have to be able to make anyone they harm whole. Anti-car rhetoric is absolute top tier nonsense. It's harder to get access to a 2000 pound vehicle than it is to get access to a projectile on two wheels that can easily flatten someone.
