Roads in the city should be shared by all vehicles including bicycles and e-bikes. It is legal for me to ride my e-bike on the road.

Police would more than likely stop me if I were riding everywhere on the sidewalk. So please, don’t gripe at me to get off the road.

I obey the rules of the road and stop at stop lights and stop signs. With advance green left turn lights, I obey that, too.

I use my signals when turning or when needing to cross lanes, unlike some of you who drive cars who fail to do so and are in violation.

Instead of scolding me, scold those cyclists who ride on the wrong side of the road. Travelling with traffic in the bike lane I often see a jerk riding his bike coming towards me in my lane.

You’re supposed to ride with traffic, not against traffic. That’s the law.

You should also gripe at the pedestrians who fail to look both ways before crossing the street. Some pedestrians don’t even come to a stop before crossing the street, even when I do not have a stop sign and they’re too ignorant to look for traffic.

So before you bother me — don’t — because I’m obeying the rules of the road. Yell at those who deserve a fine.
