RE: OT: Cycling: [was: [OT] A significant negative impact on Linux's popularity?]
Hi All,
Here in the UK, cyclists are treated the same as cars, trucks etc on the road and are subject to the same laws.
This means they have to ride with the flow of traffic, stop at red lights, give way to pedestrians etc.
Mind you, the roads are so dangerous for cyclists most just use the paths (illegal but not enforced :o)
Cheers,
Ade.
