Alright so the cops stopped me over today

[mike2389]

if there was traffic and you didnt stop, i could see the problem. but if the roads are clear of cars,

at the cop.

I dont know where most of ya live saying use the sidewalk, but here in austin you get a ticket for that.
Bikes are suppose to be treated like cars here. I seen a cop chase a dude down couple blocks to give him a ticket for not stoping at a stop sign, on campus.
I honestly think its a whole lot bs, but its whatever. If bikes wanted to be treated like cars, they should act like cars(not cut clog up the lane going 5mphor not yielding right away when i get to the stop sign first).

You can be ticketed where I live for not stopping at a stop sign.

bikes are supposed to be on the road.

and OP.. yes.. you're operating a vehicle.. you're supposed to obey all traffic rules.

You should still stop just to be sure no damn car is about to run you over.

You have to follow the same rules as a car.

I hate bikers that don't, its a damn epidemic in Minneapolis and then they whine when they get hit by cars.Well hell if you would have stopped at the red light ya wouldn't have gotten hit! Grrr
