Your emotional response on your part which does not take the reality of the situation seriously.  Laws regulating driving have gone on for a long time, think mandatory seat belts and more recently texting while driving.  One concern does not negate others.  No one would argue that there are not drivers of motor vehicles who drive poorly.  There are.  My comment was about cyclists who place themselves in danger by violating the laws of the road.  There are those who do not. is it your contention that Denver's roads are indeed suitable for cyclists and drivers?  Is it your contention that drivers should also be wearing helmets?  What exactly is your point or do you just wish to inflame the already seething conflict between cyclists and drivers?
