Haha, I knew as soon as I saw that you think respecting people's lives is treating them as "sacred cows" that you must be a Chicago driver.

  Safety goes both ways. If your going to act like an entitled snot who takes chances with your life because you can't be bothered to follow the rules of the road and respect cars, other cyclists, and pedestrians then you kinda deserve what happens to you. Heaven forbid we all play by the rules.

    Nope. Even entitled snots don't deserve to be killed when it can be avoided. Not going to debate that point. Passing on the right by cyclists is legal in Chicago, BTW, when done so with care (the law was clarified last year). It's not clear if that's the behavior you're referring to.

      Not killed, but fined. We need to regulate bikes like we do cars and monetize bike violations. Oh I can hear the critical mass whining from here. Pedestrians should also consider bikes on the sidewalk a form of assault and it should be a criminal violation. If I can't drive on the sidewalk then you can't ride on it. /Guy who cycles and drives in Chicago.
