In heavy rain last night, the bike ahead of us with no lights decided to merge into the blind-spot of another car also merging into the central lane. He lived through no good management of his own.
This bicyclist with no lights then joined a pack of three others to slow the traffic down behind them. Only one of the four bicyclists had any lighting or reflective material at all.
They moved in a pack, so the cars including ours could not get around them because the traffic was heavy. Fortunately, the street was well lit so you could see them, just. Bikes must go.

Right, so by your logic, the fact that when I’m on my bike I sometimes I can’t get past cars that are stuck in traffic jams, then cars should go? Or because I sometimes see cars driving at night without a light or two, car shouldn’t be allowed on the road?
Sometimes cars have to wait for bikes. Sometimes bikes have to wait for cars. Harden up. We all have to share the road.
