Default Bicycles in streets...

All respect to ppl who use bicycles...
but...
why don they just use their tracks?
some cyclists use the middle of the street and this is really scary...
some one jumped infront of me from the pavement while i was driving!!!!!!!!

Australia streets are not as Amsterdam streets, so cyclists please be careful, and try to avoid streets that not suitable for cycling

Really bad up this way too mate.

Lots of Orientals who seem totally oblivious to road rules and anything with a motor in it.

That also includes some of the locals who use similar thought processes when driving. Never had so many near-misses in a very short period of time.

Apparently the road rules apply only to other road users :scared:

I think it's like Mission Impossible.

After passing their test the rule book self destructs.
