BICYCLES

If you are a Bloomington Indiana resident who rides a bicycle, I would like to have your comments on the following issues:

Do you ever ride a bike on a sidewalk?
- Why or why not?
Do you obey traffic signs, signals, and markings?
- Why or why not?
Do you ride the wrong way on one-way streets?
- Why or why not?
Do you make complete stops at STOP signs?
- Why or why not?
Do you signal continuously for 200 feet before turning?
- Why or why not?
When slowing down or stopping, do you signal?
- Why or why not?
Did you know that bike wheels larger than 14 inches in diameter are prohibited from sidewalks?
Were you aware that in Indiana, bicycles, ridden animals, horse drawn vehicles, and automobiles must all obey all the same traffic laws?
Did you know that it's illegal to lock bikes to traffic signs, signals, or fire hydrants?
Were you aware that allowing one's own children to break Indiana bicycle laws is a crime?
If you came from another state or country:
- Where are you from?
- What are the bicycle laws there?

I am genuinely interested in why there are so many bicycle violations and accidents. Answers will be kept confidential. Please email to (remove spaces):
