      The cops know that they are professionals at work taking calculated risks... where the risk takers are also the vulnerable ones. I've had cops tell me "look bud, you wanna go get smashed flat like a door mat, be my guest, but trust, in any accident out there, your the one on the losing end... guaranteed. So if you know you know what your doing..."
      Also if you think you know the laws for bicycles, but you almost always drive a car... your probably more confident about how much you know the road laws then you should be... have you heard of the 'Idaho Stop Law' (applicable outside of Idaho, as well as within)...??
      It's also commonly called the 'Stop as Yield Law'... it basically allows bikes to treat stop signs as yield signs and treat red lights as stop signs... that's the law for bikes in Oregon but people who drive cars are constantly screaming 'that's illegal' out their car window when actually it's perfectly legal. It's not in the driver's manual when you go to learn to drive because it doesn't apply to cars... but just because it isn't in the manual doesn't make the law less valid. Automobile drivers usually don't know bike laws and think they do. They should not go claiming someone broke all the rules when they don't know the rules... bumper surfing (grabbing on to a car to pull you along)... usually there's actually no rule for or against it so also not illegal in many cases... so if everything you know about running a red light/stop sign doesn't apply to bikes and unreasonable as it sounds bumper surfing isn't illegal than you have to begin to question what you thought you knew. Now all that having been said I don't know NYC's laws... and some drivers do know cycling laws well but if you aren't sure... Google Idaho Stop Law... see that I'm not wrong, and use that to open your mind to the idea that different laws apply to different vehicle types, and some of those laws are going to be counterintuitive. All that having been said he probably did break a few laws, and I don't think NYC does the Idaho stop law... on the books... but in practice, they use the NYC stop law... if your a messenger, and you know what your doing ... you don't stop... EVER... Except for babies (strollers, papoose cradle boards). (Papoose refers to the child not the specialized backpack, that's actually called a cradle board.)

      This is an argument for running a red light when there's no cross-traffic in order to remain visible to cars traveling in the same direction, or rolling a stop sign to keep your momentum. No cyclist who does urban/city riding is saying these things should be verboten or even looked down upon. But that's not what's happening in this video. Riding the wrong way on one-way streets, coming within inches of hitting pedestrians who have the right of way, grabbing onto the wheel wells of cars to propel yourself forward -- it's just stupid, dangerous shit that has nothing to do with "staying on the safe side."

      Rules exist for cars because they are heavy metal boxes that go fast and kill things when they collide. Bikes are basically pedestrians on wheels, most rules are for their own safety only, so if a biker judges himself skilled enough to disobey the rules it doesnt really matter. However, there should be a basic level of respect by bikers who disobey the rules, I dont agree with the way that guy was riding, but what you gonna do🤷🏽‍♂️

I don't run stoplights anymore but I learned things about intersections I didn't know before. I reckon I'm a safer driver because of riding too.

      No. The driver would get charged with a reckless driving misdemeanor and would face a fine and jail time, because we don't put that much trust in people. People make mistakes, and when you mix that with hubris and fast moving objects, other people can get seriously hurt.

      In NYC you either drive like this or it is not worth it. Pedestrian lanes are even more dangerous as you could see in the video. People on foot are even less focused on where they are going. As for the car drivers, they should be 100% at the moment, and if they are there won't be any problem with bicycles. The magic rule is, to be predictable in traffic on a bike. While no other drivers respect that, bicycle riders actually do. This guy is insanely skilled. This is not a showoff, no, just a showcase of what it looks like to ride a bicycle in NYC.

    I agree that this was not the "nicest" of riding but to have achieved that skill and level of finesse as a city rider, i think you need to become aggressive and even a dick sometimes because city riding is a jungle. Car drivers can be assholes, pedestrians with their stupid cellphones don't get me started, kids/teenagers, bus drivers, 18wheel rig drivers, cab drivers, etc.... Until you live it everyday which i actually do, you cant understand how much of a jungle it really is!
