And to stress the point, cyclists also need to be wary of their actions. This morning on my ride in to work, at a red light, a cyclist just ahead of me used an idling car to rest on, so he didn't have to unclip from his pedal and put his foot down. I mean, no wonder some people hate cyclists. Haha…well, to be honest, I could do with less spandex in my sightline ;)

The documentary "Veer" (veerthemovie.com) followed the process of securing safety measures like the ones you describe here in Oregon. The cycling lobby had to work vigorously to get the bill passed, but a year after its approval, cycling deaths had gone down dramatically and other outcomes had improved significantly, too. Carlo-
