Well, I always stop at intersections like the ones described in the article, wherew a trail meets the road. In fact, I lead a ride that bisects a trail, while I am riding on the road. Twice. I am cautious, but I don't stop. The people on the trail have a stop sign. Yet, sometimes, the cars stop for the riders crossing the street on bikes. Then, this makes me look like the bad one, but I am following the law.
I do not blow through intersections, either, Emily. There are a few local ones where I will come to a rolling stop, because they are on country roads with little traffic and the sight lines are good. Sometimes DH will go through a yellow light and I stop, because I just can't sprint as fast as he can! Despite the fact my commute is short (5.2 miles), I see all kinds of bad riding behavior around this, with other riders.
