While we are on the topic, there would be a lot less cyclists in 
hospitals if they would remember that cyclists also have the same
OBLIGATIONS as cars, to wit:

  1.  Not driving down one way streets in the wrong direction.
  2.  Stopping (or at least slowing down) for red lights.
  3.  Not riding on the sidewalks (or at least yielding the
      right of way to pedestrians.)


It's sometimes very tempting for a motorist not to move out of the
way when some half-wit attempts one of the above.

P.S.  I gave up riding my bike in the city - too dangerous!
