Times Colonist · John Ducker: Is it time to allow cyclists to make an 'Idaho stop'?A 2010 study showed that, in Idaho, cyclists’ injuries were reduced after the state removed the requirement to come to a full stop at a stop sign.
As an avid cyclist and supporter of getting more people out of their cars, I'd support this. In fact, there are several cycling laws that should go (including some helmet laws!). Instead, put efforts into good cycling education, and good awareness of risks vs. benefits. Penalize "dangerous cycling" but allow more individual choice. #cycling #carfree.
