Cyclists should stay on the sidewalk where they belong

They need to stay out of the way of vehicles. Not sure about being ran over, but they need to be more courteous to cars/trucks and stop or get out of the flow of traffic.

He got back to his feet pretty quickly so probably not.

On river road this weekend cyclists were riding 4 wide. They looked annoyed at motorists. I cycle and I was annoyed with the cyclists.

Dumbasses. Why would you ride a freaking bike on a road with a speed limit of over 50 or 60? That's a death wish.

Also looks like the trucker tried passing them on the shoulder, which is what they were trying to get to when they were hit. I guess the cyclist assumed it would be clear for that reason and didn't even look.

Isn't it illegal for cyclists to be on an interstate?

I don’t care what your stance is on this is because I’m gonna always choose safety over anything.

A person walking or riding a bike on a roadway will ALWAYS lose against a vehicle.

Why even try it? I’m not pissing someone off in a vehicle and act like “they can just go around me”

All interstates prohibit cycling.
There should be a sign like this at every entrance.

There's a mimimum speed standards on Interstates.

If they can't get their arse up to 45 MPH lock 'em up!

I am so thankful I don’t have to drive on river road anymore.

When they ride in formation or in groups of about 20 it’s easy to come around a turn and be surprised. It’s a terrible road to have as a training route with the high speed limit and curves.

I once saw a moped on the interstate, in the left lane, with no helmet on. Guy looked like he didn't have a care in the world as he just cruised slowly. I was scared for him.
