The only offense I tend to see cyclists is blowing through stop signs, but if you consider the ol' "rolling stop" cars as rightfully illegal, then pretty much everyone ends up guilty at stop signs.

Plus as everyone notes, it's a hell of a lot less dangerous for pedestrians if a bike zooms past vs a car (especially SUVs and Trucks, oof).

    Stop signs should really be a yield for cyclists (and lights, especially at intersections with sensors that aren't triggered by bikes, should be treated as stop signs).
