Why are Bicyclists rude and dicey?

I live in Portland Oregon and drive a coup¨¦. We are very bike friendly and although its not my item I'm all for supporting them when its perfect for the environment and clears congestion...However I notice that tons many times they never follow traffic rules when riding doing a tour. They run red lights and stop signs, it's physicaly impossible for them to follow speed limits (more of an annoyance than a difficulty if your behind them), and they are VERY rude.

One time I slowed down waiting for a bicyclist to merge because he give the hand signal surrounded by on a very busy street durring morning rush hour. Because he never did and be slowing a huge line of cars bringing up the rear me I was in recent times going to go around him after his arm go down and I waited a bit more. He then dart infront of me, turned around and screamed obsenities and cut oncomming traffic to turn down a side road. And this be man that looked well to do. What give? What can I do to change things?

I suppose i might of be caught...



Answers:    Because drivers are more rude and unsafe than they are.

What Should I Do About My Speeding...


Well I do this just to release stress. Nothing really against the motorist....more so in recent times need to vent on some things that are going on and you be there to vent.
