As long as bicylists can get stopped for (1) blocking traffic by going too
slow (just like cars), (2) running a red light (just like cars), (3)
NOT passing a dozen cars waiting at an intersection (just like cars), etc.

Funny how some bicyclists always demand that cars give them respect but don't
want to obey the same laws the cars do.
