Law-breaking among cyclists: perception vs reality
Very interesting article. The comments at the end say it all; blowing through a red light is illegal no matter how you look at it. I believe this is the single biggest thing cyclists do to give us all a bad name. I admit to treating stop signs as yield signs when there is no traffic, but when it comes to light controlled intersections I will always follow the lights.
