But I've also got no patience with the bikes who, after I've spent several blocks and finally safely passed them, pass _me_ in the gutter on my right while I'm stopped at a light and then get right back in front of me. The cars aren't the only ones who need educating. <br /><br />While we're educating the car drivers on how to treat the bikes, though, let's also clue them in on not running down the pedestrians. It's like people on foot don't even exist.
