Drivers need to be careful of bikes too, but I find it's mostly bikers in the wrong.
Too many choose to be vehicles when convenient, pedestrians when convenient and use their own rules when convenient.

Yep... I ride my bike to work every day, and I'm guilty of doing this. I do it because stopping at every stop sign is a pain, and because sometimes running a light is the only way to get into the lane I need to be in... But ultimately, if I get hit doing that it's going to be my fault.
