Article: Why cyclists should be able to roll through stop signs and ride through red lights

Joseph Stromberg argues that: "while it's obviously reckless for cyclists to blow through an intersection when they don't have the right of way, research and common sense say that slowly rolling through a stop sign on a bike shouldn't be illegal in the first place. Some places in the US already allow cyclists to treat stop signs as yields, and red lights as stop signs, and these rules are no more dangerous — and perhaps even a little safer — than the status quo."
