We'll see if it has any effect other than to produce tombstone reactions. Given that a number of studies have shown that bicycles are at fault in a substantial percentage of bicycle-auto collisions, more than half in one study, and in at least two reports autopsies showed that as many as 25% of cyclist deaths had excessive BAC, will these new aggressive penalties apply to cyclists? Or solely to autos? In San Francisco I would guess that bicycles are at fault in bike/car collisions more than half the time. And the other half are car drivers with road rage from the acts of bicyclists. When you are polite with drivers they are generally polite back unless they are young punks trying to show off their machismo via automobile or Asian women who simply cannot drive. Hey! My wife is an Asian woman and hasn't hit a bicycle in her 25 year career as an auto pilot :-) ... as far as you know Nope. She does tell me. She sort of drop kicked a motorcycle through a stop light once and she told me about that... how else would she explain that dent in the front bumper? ... okay, as far as -SHE- knows. You are saying that my wife wouldn't know if she hit a motorcycle? Given that you certainly have never met my wife and know nothing about here I find your remark to be insulting, so I'll just say that "you don't know what you are talking about" and consign you to the list of the other fools that jabber away about things of which they know nothing. -- Cheers, John B. |

Comparing your touchiness to some of the outrageous things you've said and not have been kidding about as Doug was that's pretty funny. |

Not MY touchiness but rather a certain sense of outrage at an individual who will stoop to insulting a lady that he has never met, and has no knowledge of. But you haven't the same hesitation for doing the same thing to anyone on this group. |

I can't remember ever mentioning anyone's wife except for once when I made the suggestion that lateral leg raises might help Frank's wife with her problems in getting on a bike. For which, if I remember, Frank thanked me. -- Cheers, John B. |

And the insult you took over it far exceeded anything that was even closely related. |

And the insult you took over it far exceeded anything that was even closely related. I notice that you have so adroitly trimmed the original posts in order to eliminate the actual conversation. Which, of course, serves (you hope) to justify your present assertion. Yet another example of the Corporate Warrior: Standing erect, shoulders back, head up, nose in the air and speaking in a loud assertive voice. The most ludicrous B.S. -- Cheers, John B. |
