Those sound like shitty cyclists. I would never pass up a car at a stop sign and blow through it while they are stopped. I may roll through a stop sign (I'm not unclipping and stopping completely at a 4 way stop with no other cars around), but so do most cars. I slow down, make sure I have the right of way and keep going. Now how many times have I had a car pass me up 50 ft from a stop sign only to hit the brakes right in front of me? The answer is plenty. I think there are tons of cyclists breaking rules no doubt, but I think it's exaggerated some. I think people overlook cars breaking a lot of the same rules just as frequently.

And here it is

I have a family member that says similar things about biking. He acts like its unreasonable to follow certain road laws on a bike because...duh...its too inconvenient.

If you're going to preach the legality of bikes on the road then be consistent. You're probably the guy that passed me at the red light the other day and then leisurely rolled down the middle of dalyrmple for the next two miles.

Are cyclists allowed to go through red lights if there are no cars coming? That is something else I see almost all of them do, yet I can't do in my car
