They're for everything with wheels, and horses too!

BUT, they all don't travel at the same speed... so slower traffic needs to allow faster traffic to move on by them safely.

drivers must “slow to a speed that is reasonable and prudent” and only pass when the cyclist will not be endangered.

why? what's the rush? here's a novel idea: perhaps the faster vehicle can slow down for the slower vehicle, eh?

This started out about driving in MEXICO, now we are trying to extend U.S. Laws on another country? I live here and love it here because of the differences in laws from the U.S. I can still be a moral, thinking person without the laws!! Common since dictates that riding a bicycle on Mexican roads is at best dangerous!!!! If we continue to try to move everything from there to here we may as well stay there, and save these wonderful people the grief we have there!!!!!

Happy Trails

Watch your thoughts; They become words.

Watch your habits; They become character.
Watch your character, for it becomes your Destiny

Not sure what part of earth you call home, Joe, but if you ever drove from US side Tecate to Chula Vista, over Otay Lakes Road on a weekend, you would most certainly have a more rounded opinion of who belongs where. The bicyclists are, in many cases, an arrogant hazard to other vehicle traffic.

DENNIS
join the fight to save lives
get a David or a barry to drive nice
might save your granddaughters live if you join the fight against bad drivers

DENNIS
join in and educate some bad drivers
biggest problema
they think it is their personal road
get them to think it is everyones road
stop the killing and save a life
hit the brakes when you see a bicycle

Dennis you need a reason to exist, make that reason to save a life the life of a cyclist

:lol: I thought that dog looked familiar! if I was to choose a side here i'd be pro-bicyclist. but anti-jackazz. now that joe has said the exact same thing here well over fourty times, lets take a look back when roverjoe was advocating a two post per day limit, and a little doug rant to top it off. joe I think you've surpassed your 2 post limit, change of heart:?:
this from mister rover:

This is the train of thought that drives legitimate people away. With no effective leader ship Baja Nomads will continue to collect mentally challenged people who are no longer allowed to post on other web sites. People with abnormal brain chemistry can not be talked to or reasoned with..

Doug
Since you have given up on policing your web page ...
pass the baton to someone else.
create a 2 post per day limit for each computer, (not log in name.) The nomads will surely take up a collection to pay some to fix this page if you don't want to do it your self.

DavidE - 2-6-2014 at 04:27 PM

Ah hell no. Let's start a fad

Pavement Colored Clothing

Pavement Colored Machine

Pennants Not Allowed

Google Glasses For Riding At Night

WHEN I CANNOT SEE THEM I WILL SLOW DOWN, IT'S A PERSONAL RULE

AFTER I FEEL THE THUMP

If the bulk of the funding to build the highways is through gasoline taxes and motor vehicle registration revenues, then motoring public has paid for the construction and privilege to use these roads. The bicyclist has contributed to the construction and maintenance of these roads HOW? Seems to me with the inherent hazard of a 15 lb bicycle competing for space with a three ton vehicle (or larger) that travels at four times the speed (or greater), it would be sensible to separate the two. In this case, separation might mean that the bicycling community pays for the construction and maintenance of their own pathways adjacent to the highways. IMHO
I'm not anitbike; I have owned plenty of mountain bikes in the past 35 years and ride them avidly, but far from the highways and motor vehicles.

If you notice most highways have fences to keep range animals off of roads and they are even doing this as far down as Cabo San Lucas and all of Hwy 19. Why? Because anything appearing on a road designed for maximum speed limits is dangerous for whatever is going at a snail pace and the vehicle going at the maximum speed limit.

If we all did what cyclists wanted, we would all drive at 20 miles an hour all the time just so we could be respectful of them in case they happen to appear when it is inconvenient or dangerous for all parties.

I am not anti-cyclist, I AM pro-life.
