3-way street

I was astounded at the number of cyclists riding against traffic.

YES, this! I swear I gasped out loud the first time I saw that. I was scared of being hurt just watching this on my computer.

The same video has been linked now from 2 other threads in the forum, one by Brandi (http://forums.teamestrogen.com/showthread.php?t=43176) and the other by Biciclista (http://forums.teamestrogen.com/showthread.php?t=43166).

I am with PamNY: my favorite is the semi truck backing up, but not only that... it does it a U-turn!

Bikes going against traffic in between moving traffic are a scary sight. I see much of the same behaviors here, in the Chicago area. Yesterday, during rush hour (cars bumper to bumper a traffic lights) I saw a cyclist, no helmet, racing against traffic in a 4 lane avenue, towards the traffic light. Just as the traffic light changed to green, he decided to steer right and go in between the cars that were starting to move. They hit the brakes very hard. Unbelievable.

I love that "bike lane" video.

Here's another the Neistat Brothers did about how easy it is to steal a bike in NYC:
