The problem is that cops don't cite them for this, and they should.
That’s just it, it isn’t legal to ride like that.
But they do it anyway.
And water bottle stops in the road that brings all traffic to a halt.
Apparently it is too hard on law enforcement to enforce the law on those guys.
Someone posted some of the laws about it further up thread.
But who suffers?
Those of us who live there, ride and try to be conscious of our surroundings.
We get the idiots who rage over the genius spandex douches
aiming at us in misplaced anger direction.
(I’m out in orange county ny. Some rural spots, but let’s be real here. Rural doesn’t mean “block the darn roads”, and cops can’t be bothered for it unless someone is hurt as they are a reaction force not a preventive force these days.)
