Really? In Manhattan biking up and down avenues, I find it often makes more sense to run the red light. Riding next to unpredictable taxis and cars seems much more dangerous than getting ahead of the traffic cluster by running the red light (and the grid makes it pretty easy to see when someone's coming down the street you're crossing). Part of my commute down 2nd Ave above the Queens-Midtown Tunnel doesn't have a dedicated bike lane, so I try to spend as little time riding side-by-side with cars as possible. Bike lanes make things easier. On the other hand, biking in Brooklyn or Queens where the traffic is faster and less predictable (and thus more dangerous), I agree. |
