If only motorists obeyed the traffic laws.

You’re absolutely correct. Bicyclists are supposed to obey the rules of the road, and often don’t. They are endangering themselves when they blow through stop signs like that.

never roll through a stop sign on coventry, you’re going to be busted at more than $100, and good luck arguing that it was only a “traffic calming” stop sign. The Decatur police do take this seriously, and if you’re unlucky enough not to be paying attention, then you’ll get a ticket. on the biker note, I agree completely with Rebecca. OBEY THE STOP SIGNS. heck, you’re already going faster than the lugs in cars on on Ponce.

Recently, I approached a stop sign with my blinker on to turn left, prior to oncoming bikers. I stopped fully. As I began my turn, they did not stop, and I almost hit them. They gave me a dirty look. If you use the road on a vehicle, you should abide by the laws of the road.
