ArmokGoB, in Study Finds Cyclists Are Better People Than Drivers | Jalopnik

I don’t know, the people riding bicycles over the 3 foot wide sidewalk on the bridge (which has a bike lane going each way) in my city come across as selfish assholes.

Aren’t bikes also required to stop at red lights?

Isoprenoid,

Yes, but you don’t need lights if there are only bikes. Lights are there to prevent heavy vehicles from colliding. If there are no heavy vehicles, then the lights aren’t needed.

If the children were driving their own SUVs this wouldn’t be a problem.

Showroom7561, in 85% Of Car Drivers Break 20mph Speed Limits, Reveals U.K.’s Department For Transport

I believe it 100%.

I started riding with a Garmin bike radar and installed an app that tells me exactly how fast a car is going when it passes, and the majority are over the speed limit.

Just the other day, in a 60 km/h zone, I clocked two cars going 125 km/h.

If I thought for a second that police would charge these drivers using photo/video evidence, I’d fork over the $500 to get the radar with a camera built-in and report each and every speeding driver that passes me.

In Denmark we have the lovely new law that if you drive more than 100% over the speed limit and over 100 kmh or drive over 200 kmh at all or drunk driving with over 2‰ they confiscate the car and you are not getting it back at all. They confiscate the car regadles of who owns the car (with very few exceptions) and that is also if it is leased. So far since when the law started they have confiscated over 2000 cars in two years. It’s my favourite law of all laws right now. The fine for driving crazy is also nicely proportional to your income and it removes the car so the person cannot just drive without license afterwards.

GBU_28,

I can’t get behind property seizure without compensation, but I can understand everything else.

Even if they said “you can’t have this car any more, but can sell it from our facility” that’d be better I think
