It's a hazard...

Like I said before a bicycle can only travel as fast as the person pedaling it. It shouldn't be allowed on the road either. All you are doing by allowing it is giving kids another excuse to be in the roadway. Because it's legal, but when a child gets hit then they want to gripe and blame the driver. I really don't like this double standard crap. Maybe the guy should drive a riding mower, it goes faster than a chair and he could pull a wagon behind it.

I drove a riding mower to my last day of high school. I even had 2 friends on it with me so I could park in Byrd's student lot.
