Some cyclists obey the laws but I too ride and I can attest many ignore the rules if THEY think they are being safe. Many think stopping is not an option. I once road with a church group who regularly rode through red lights and laughed about it. Go figure.
I had a boss who once cautioned my assistant never to assume anything. She said “Don’t assume, it’s makes an ass out of you.”
He waited a couple seconds. When she didn’t say anything more he added "Don’t you mean “you” and “me”?
“No, just "you"" she replied.
We both had a good laugh over it later. You’d have to know this woman. The only reason she had a job was because she was married to the owner of the business.
In California all we need is lower temps. The sun shines ALL THE FREAKING TIME!!!!
