Thank you!! If you want to claim your right to the road pay up like everyone else license and yearly inspection. They skate way too much on violations of the vehicle code. I see some who are trying to be courteous and give them the same respect, But too many are just arrogant a-holes. The bigger the group the worse the behavior.

They should be ticketed for impeding traffic on roads with no shoulder and a double yellow line.
Most are gay like, they seldom obey traffic laws, in general they are a scourge to the safety of the motoring public.
If I am ever given a ticket on a bicycle, I will frame it. I have NEVER met a motorist who obeys every law. If I come to a stop sign and there is no traffic coming, I slow roll it. On my bike and in my car. I almost always slow roll right on reds. I travel over the speed limit every time I drive. I don't give turn signals when there's nobody there to see it. Don't we all break the law. How often is it that a cyclist breaks the law and injures someone. It's exceedingly rare. It happens thousands of times across this country with people in motor vehicles. Yet bicyclists seem to be the subject of so much scorn.
There are times I break the law on my bike and it actually benefits the motorists I share the road with. They probably don't even realize it.
