Stupid Cyclists

Now, I'm an avid cyclist and I'm all for cyclists' rights and all that. But, I was flipping through TV channels a while back when I came upon a discussion between cyclists and drivers on MTV Canada. There were some bike couriers who were talking about how they get no respect from people in cars.

During the talk one courier mentioned how she never stops at stop signs. She said that drivers should just expect that from cyclists. That's the kind of attitude that makes drivers want to run us off the road. People like her deserve to be hit by cars. No wonder there's so much animosity between us.

If you don't respect the rules of the road, you don't deserve any respect yourself. Getting that through the thick skulls of morons like her is the first step between mending relations between cyclists and drivers that's for sure.

It's already dangerous enough out there. Don't make it worse by pissing off people driving around 1-1/2 tons of steel, glass and rubber. Trust me, it's a fight you're not going to win.
