Description
Bicycles on sidewalks are becoming a hazard where businesses or residences open directly onto the sidewalk. They often ride too fast, and don't give proper notice when approaching a pedestrian from behind. Curb cuts installed as a result of the ADA for wheelchair users make cyclist behave as if they were designed for them.
