This is also where my attitude gets so raw....You get people who at least in the words I quoted,
think they are better than other motorists, or get luxury privileges based on their extreme mobility
and compact size. And it's the same people in a lot of cases that complain they don't get any
respect, or the same respect as other drivers. In this case, you really DON'T get to have it
both ways. I just saw Easy Rider the other night on commercial TV and I felt really bad for D. Hopper
and P. Fonda. I guess they suffered for the bad, too.

Look, it's a real shame that cyclists are in such danger and get so little respect in this 'everyone has
a phone in use in their car at all times" world. But 1/4 of you are SCREWING the other 3/4 of you, too.
