[quote=Anonymous] I want to really be supportive of people who are cycling, but I’ve had so many rude encounters with them. They just seem so entitled and obnoxious in their habits, and so aggressive towards drivers. I try to be careful but they too should be careful of cars. They breeze right through stop signs and act so indignant when a car stopping lawfully at a stop sign honks in protest. Obey the traffic laws and be mindful of the 3 ton vehicle attempting to legally make a right turn in front of you! The car waited their turn, why can’t the cyclist?

Last summer at a three way stop I saw a cyclist actually continue through the intersection without stopping in front of a car that was turning. The car slammed on its brakes so not to hit him, and the cyclist slammed his hand on the front of the car hood and continued on his way.

I do not approve of cars being aggressive with cyclists, either alone or in packs.  I have seen myself or heard about many instances of cyclist being rude or aggressive towards drivers as well. I don’t think either is appropriate. [/quote]
