> I will admit to having a mildly "political" motive, in that I would like drivers to have a positive experience dealing with cyclists.

Me too, except the other way around. I will make sure there is a ton of room before merging in front of a bicyclist, and I will give them the full lane on a two lane road when passing them even if they're hugging the curb.

When riding on the streets, they are given the same legal protection as any other vehicle. I just wish that every bicyclist also knew that they have to follow every law a car does too - including stopping at red lights and stop signs.



Oh, we know. :) Just like car drivers know about the speed limit and texting.
