Reply to comment by Cold417 in To the new people that moved in on Jackson Spring Rd in Ozark that ride bikes and run. You’re asking for a death wish. by [deleted]

It’s just a suggestion man, there’s still greenway, dogwood, there’s the trail in Ozark that goes from the community center to the park, if they want more Road they should find a place with less blind spots and sharp turns. I only suggest because it’s closest and the cyclist are using mountain bikes as well.

We all need to share our public resources. If you think the road is unsafe for alternative forms a transportation please petition the city/county to improve infrastructure not your neighbors trying to move around their world under their own natural power.

Be a good driver and you won't have anything to worry about. Cycles are classified as vehicles and have the same rights to the road as everyone else does.

All that aside I used to think you were one of the cooler redditors on this sub man but that last few months I’ve seen you on here and if I’m being honest you come off as a pot stirrer

Okay. Is explaining road law controversial?

Bypassing common sense safety procedures so you can focus on the legality of it if someone were to hit you is backwards. The point is NOT TO GET HIT IN THE FIRST PLACE so you don't have to resort to legalities. Otherwise, it's the same energy as "Screw em. If they hit me, I'll just sue." Wouldn't you like to not have to get to that point from the get go?? This is also assuming you don't get killed by being pretentious.
