Cyclists with Blinders
OK, I know the city bike lanes are limited and I know bikes are a decent form of urban transportation but fer christ sake will you cyclists keep your eyes open at least? I have had two near misses in the last while due to people on bikes not signaling,

Bikes are vehicles, so they use the road.They must follow the rules.. Just because your physically ‘able’ to swerve around and in front of vehicles doesnt mean you should (or can legally.)
I agree. My wife & I cycle on weekends and we use hand signals, stay off sidewalks, walk our bikes thru intersections, but we are the most targeted (by motorists) for obeying the rules.Smarten up Assholes on a bike! Don’t get me started on Point Pleasant Part on the weekend or Holidays.
