[SDCBC] Ditto Amen, Signs for City Heights?

[jwstump at cox.net]

Gene,

I like your action thinking.

I sure would like a couple of those CVC 21200. signs put up in City Heights.  Maybe we could get a City policy that such signs be posted on every City bike route like neighborhood signs.

Maybe we should have an action package that includes naming routes and placing signs.  Besides the Ghost bike we could get a CVC 21200.at every incident site.

Happy Holidays
John

How about a T shirt that on the front just says:  Google CVC 21200.

On the back just this:  Every person riding a bicycle upon a roadway 
has all the rights and is subject to all the provisions applicable to 
the driver of a vehicle.

And that booth that jwstump mentioned...  how about stocking it with 
flyers that look like this:

In fact, why not just make up T shirts with that sign on them.

The booth could have a full set of literature from "Street Smarts" to 
the "DMV Handbook..." the latter already book marked on the pages 
with the bicycle info.

People are going to drive... even if all the oil was gone, there 
would still be some form of alternative technology to allow some form 
of "car."   We just want drivers to share the road.

Of course it would also be nice if there were bicycle freeways 
too...  to preserve the inertia of a moving body...  rather than 
having to stop at each and every intersection.  sigh...
