It seems perfectly logical, if a car is supposed to pass a bike leaving 6ft space no matter what the relative velocities a bike should surely keep 6ft away from a car when performing a similar maneuver. If push bike riders feel this is far too much, and it is OK to pass within inches then the same must be true for a motor vehicle passing a push bike would it not? |

Why are moronists willing to wait patiently to pass a horse but not a bicycle. |
