My car came with headlights and I switch them to on when it starts to get dark.

BluHevn - which speedlimit? The maximum or the minimum? Most roads do not have a minimum so in reality they are doing the correct speed. Just because it is the maximum you can go on a road, doesn't mean it is the speed that has to be traveled. 65 means anything upto and including 65. Too bad most of you can't grasp that concept.

BluHevn - there are roads that we can't ride on. They are called limited access highways. Other than that, we can ride anywhere we like as long as we follow the rules of the road. Also, we are not supposed to ride on sidewalks. The last part of the word should explain why.

BIGUNCFAN-I must have missed something for someone to say they feel sorry for the "Kid", but even more so for the "Driver". This child is DEAD, how much more of a price could he pay not to live to maybe even be old enough to drive a car? Maybe this child was careless for a second, but to be the callus in a statement in his family's despair is unhuman to say the least. And I wonder if it would be so easy to feel sorry for this "Driver" more if the "Kid" was yours or a family member?

jbco - the majority of drivers fail to follow the rules of the road also. How many people do you see not signaling, speeding, failure to yield, riding in the right lane for miles on end and the list can go on and on. As a rider, I follow the rules of the road and am nearly run of the road everytime I ride. I ride as far to the right as is safe (even though I'm entitled to use the entire lane), stop at stop signs (nearly hit by the idiot trying to pass me at the stop sign), signal (nearly hit by the idiots who don't know what hand signals are). And yet, I still have to listen to the morons tell me to get off the road, I need to pay taxes (probably pay way more than most of these idiots since I drive a much nicer car and probably live in a much nicer home than those saying this to me) and roads are for cars (wonder how all that farm equipment gets back and forth to the fields). A word of advice to all of you, drivers and bicyclist, learn the rules of the road and quit complaining.
