[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A law that is universally ignored shouldn’t be on the books. This was the proper action for DC council to take.

If cars stopped for stop signs and red lights, this wouldn’t be an issue. But cars don’t stop for stop signs or red lights. So why should cyclists have to? [/quote]

Cars do stop (they just don't come to a complete stop.and never have).  Bicylists don't even do that.

The only reason I know this is because my dad was a stickler for it when teaching me to drive.  Despite that neither he nor I nor anybody I have ever seen comes to a complete stop according to the letter of the law so I am not claiming I am better than anyone else in this regard.[/quote]

This is just hysterical. So “stop” is a fluid thing now? Kinda like gender, right? Please consult a dictionary, dear poster. Not to spoil surprise, but I don’t think you can be stopped if you are still moving.

It is reality.  Deny it to your hearts content but that doesn't make it any less real.[/quote]

Go and look it up in a dictionary. I dare you.[/quote]
