Cars & Bikes

I am a cyclist in Winston-Salem North Carolina.  I do not drive.  To get to my two jobs and do the things people do I either bike or get a ride.  I want people to realize that I have a right just like any other vehicle to be on the road.  There are situations that make it very unsafe for me and raise my ire like nothing else.

• !!!!!!!!DO NOT PASS ME ON A CURVE!!!!!!!!
• Waiting at a red light and a car goes around me to turn right:
• Please don't do this.  You go around me on the left you have become a wall and is illegal and highly unsafe.  You go to my right and you have the chance to run into me.  
• I am a vehicle.  Even though I may be smaller, I am occupying the lane and you should wait till the light turns and I have moved forward.
• Trying to pass me in the same lane when I am in the middle or left of the lane.
• I occupy that part of the road when there are obstacles on the side of the road( cars parked on the side of the road, brush  and such) or I am going to be going fast enough to keep up with traffic and there is another lane beside me that you can pass me.
• Please understand that I will move back over once the obstacle is passed and it is safe for me to do so.
• Passing me in the middle of an intersection.  
• Extremely unsafe.
• Wait till I get out of the intersection then pass me when it is safe.
• Coming beside me at an intersection because you can fit.
• If you are coming up to an intersection then you need to not pass me to get ahead of me.  Stay behind me and wait till I go.
• Do not place your car in my sight line by coming beside me and blocking my left side vision.

I do know I have to follow the laws of the road also.  The laws I follow are here

• Winston-Salem Bike Laws
• NC Bike Laws
