Yeah, thats a lot of words that simmer down to “my foot is now officially in my mouth.”

Wait, did you just compare cyclists to minorities that have been oppressed for centuries in this country?

What if there is an emergency where someone drove from one location to another to help a friend or family desperately in need? Should they find a spot first or let them die?

That is a good question. It may seem like they are being cold however, that is how research is done to see every aspect of this sad reality. How many were following traffic laws. I see a lot of bikes roll through red lights and stop signs. I rarely see any signaling. I understand it is a bike and it is not a motor vehicle. However, I’ve witnessed cars having to avoid cyclists not following basic traffic laws. And some with children on the bike. I never want to see anyone get hurt and we can all be better.

There is a bar called 12 steps down right at the Italian Market on 9th and Christian. Carpenter is right there if you do not want to do the whole broad st thing.
