Let me explain. I have never been anywhere in the world (including 36 countries I’ve visited) where people yelled at me, called me names, and told me to get off the road so often. It seemed as if over half the people in Kentucky never learned any road decency toward cyclists at all. Of course, I met a few very nice people, but rarely, if ever, did any of them understand the bicycle laws of the state.
What are they? A bicycle has exactly the same rights as a car on the highway. Since there are no cycling trails, bicycles must use the roads. That requires that drivers must be extra tolerant when they see a bicycle. Only one “angel” escorted me across a long busy bridge.
