Heh it'll work until someone on their phone doesn't even see them. In my case, I had to swerve left of center while blaring the horn. The guy rolled the sign >15mph.

Sounds good to me, as long as cyclists follow the same rules drivers do . Just yesterday I had a cyclist blatantly roll a stop sign on a side street, entering the main road I was on. If I was an inattentive driver I would have creamed hi

I definitely understand where you're coming from. Surely there are a lot of people that this stuff actually helps really well. In the past I did have serious issues, but I was able to bring myself out of it over time, by myself. And
