The Colorado Safety Stop is the law of the land

I guess-- yeah. Obey the law. Take the right-of-way when you have it. Don't do unexpected things.

I don't want "charity" from drivers (as a cyclist, pedestrian, or other driver). I want them to act predictably and safely.

So many things in the world would be better if people just did the thing they're supposed to do. If that's "negativity" so be it.

They're not doing anything nice. That's my point. They're putting themselves and others in danger for no benefit. I don't want my bicycle to be immediately in front of their car and, more than likely, they're taking more of my time than if they'd just driven on.

I can appreciate that perspective. I am not a cyclist. I think what this really comes down to is people being on the same page, and the many people out there who are not as familiar with right of way and the law as would be ideal.
