This law makes a lot of sense to me, having been off and on a bike commuter. But I wonder if its sensibility depends on a variety of circumstances. A lot of non-cyclist drivers complain about exactly these behaviors, but in my experience it’s helped both to keep me safe on the road (typically climbing a steep hill, where a hard stop would make starting again less stable) and to let traffic continue to flow.
