No matter what signs are posted, no matter what intersections are painted, no matter what laws are passed, some laws you can't ignore, and those are the laws of physics: pedestrians and bikers come out worse every time when matched against vehicles. I don't rely on signs or laws to protect me because of this fact. I am constantly looking out for poor and inattentive drivers because my life depends on it. While it would be nice for drivers to yield to pedestrians and acknowledge that bikes are just as legal to use on the roads as cars, it isn't going to happen 100% of the time. It's unfortunate but true.
