#2 You Have an Inflated Sense of Self-Importance and Entitlement When You Ride Your Bicycle

The title of this entry pretty much sums it up, but I guess I'll lay out a few points.

First of all, bicycles are either lumped in with pedestrians and other non-motorized modes of transport (rollerblades, skateboards, walking), or they are vehicles like motorcycles, cars and trucks.  They aren't both.
Where I live, they count as vehicles, which means as a driver, I'm expected to afford all the courtesies to a bicyclist that I am for another driver.  I'm fine with that.
What I am not fine with is bicyclists who don't feel they need to return those courtesies.  When you ride your bike, you ignore the rules regarding right of way, you ignore the laws that say you belong on the road with the cars at all times, and you ignore stop signs, turning signals, and just about anything else.  You seem to think that when you are on your bike, the world must stop for you and allow you to ride down the sidewalk, through the crosswalk, in the wrong direction on the street, and make right turns from the left lane, left turns from the right lane, and straight from somewhere up in a tree.  I hope the next time you run a stop sign, you get hit by a bus.


I hate you,
