Thanks for the input. Although it is important, I wan't trying to make the point of following rules of the road.

My issue is that I'm only comfortable on my bike at two times: when I'm moving along or when I'm at a dead stop with both feet on the ground. Slowing to a stop -- especially with only one foot unclipped -- It feels very unnatural and scary.

It is probably something that I need to practice. Is there any tips or techniques that might help?
