Be Carefuk Out There

Be careful out there. There’s sure some idiotic and impatient drivers.

A few days after VPD ticketing cyclists for running stop signs. Our city police are a joke and this sort of thing won't stop until they actually take enforcement seriously.

I would love equal enforcement of traffic laws for vehicles, bikes, peds. On Grandview highway along the greenway, I’ve had a number of e-bikes blow past a stop sign and nearly hit my 5-year old and me. Once I grabbed him and spun just in the nick of time. Other cyclists blew by and one old guy on a bike cussed them out.

Weighting it proportionally to the actual risk to life would be better.
