I can relate to this: "At the Bastille, a once-enormous traffic circle that was partly appropriated from cars, a tangle of bike lanes weave through traffic. Cyclists who respect signals can take up to four minutes to cross." and later: “[Cyclists] think the rules apply to everyone except them.” There's an intersection that I used to pass twice a week for years where cars waited eight seconds on average, I waited two and a half minutes. How do I know? Well, I had ample time to count ;) Peel's second principle says that the police (and IMO the laws and rules in general) are "dependent on public approval of their existence, actions and behaviour, and on their ability to secure and maintain public respect." Traffic rules depend on public approval, too.
