Riding a bicycle can be a great way to get around. Bicycling offers a number of benefits over travel by car, while still being quicker than walking. You can enjoy the fresh air while getting great exercise and saving money. However, the drawback is that you are sharing the road with motor vehicles. Not all drivers are as committed to sharing the road safely with bicyclists as they should be. Some drivers are inattentive, paying more attention to their cell phones than to those around them. Careless drivers can be an enormous danger to bicycle riders, especially when there is no designated bike lane or when bicyclists are crossing intersections. While there are countless laws instructing drivers of motor vehicles on how to coexist with bicyclists, there are always those who do not follow them. This can leave cyclists in grave danger.
