Many don’t obey rules of the road

I respect bicycle riders and give them room when driving. However, many of them do not obey the rules of the road. When a bike path crosses a street, usually there is a stop sign for the bikes. Most of the riders drive right through without hesitation. I stop for pedestrians, but should not be forced to stop for bikes also.

Often the riders use the pedestrian crossing signal, not paying attention to walking people. It seems they switch roles between being bike riders and pedestrians as it is convenient for them.
