Drivers roll through stop signs. So why can't bike riders? The federal government says the safest way to ride a bike is to roll through the intersections when there are no cars. Its even more important for cyclists because stopping and starting take a huge amount of energy. Believe it or not, some people don't ride bikes because not stopping at intersections can get you a ticket. Now, laws are sweeping the nation to change that and right here in Nevada, we are considering similar legislation. We will talk to advocates who have passed or are working on new laws in Boston, Washington DC and Rochester. One of them, Erik Noonan of We Bike Rochester is a League of American Bicyclists Certified Advocate, and he is moving to Las Vegas where he hopes to continue his advocacy.
