So that means that any car driver can go out and pummel a bike rider and it is legit!? I would have a calm but persistant discussion with the chief of police http://brgov.com/dept/brpd/ and/or the mayor http://brgov.com/dept/Mayor/. The mayor's own web page says he's looking for traffic solutions and safe neighborhoods. I would think they would want to know about this.

"You will find the friendly people of Baton Rouge will welcome you warmly, and our government doors are always open to you." - Unless you ride a bike???
