I can't argue that some bicyclist, moped, motorcycle, walkers are idiots. I see people stepping out on to the street without looking at anything except walk signal. Stupid you might have right of way but dead right. There is no helmet law in Hawaii. Bikes & motorcycles with headphones on.
I used Road bicycle on the street with cars, motorcycles too for decades I'm 74 & still around. The keys to survival on two wheels are too many to list. Most learned from real world experience.
You will always lose against a 2000# plus vehicle with 4 tires. You have to have that ingrained in your brain.
For folks who think two wheels, pedestrians just get in the way I suggest you get on a bike or walk everywhere to get a different perspective.
When a car stops to let me cross I always wave in thanks.
