Some worry that New York City’s crackdown on unsafe cyclists leaves them facing greater consequences than drivers, even though cars cause more fatalities.

I think cyclists should be treated the same as drivers in so far as possible. And that includes obeying traffic signs, issuing of tickets and so on. I’ve almost been run over by cyclists who run red lights or go the wrong way up one way streets. It’s small consolation that a bike is “lighter” than a car if it still means some 120kg asshole slams into you because rules are for other people.
