Reply to comment by TonyUncleJohnny412 in What is the rationale when bikers go to the front of a line of cars? by TonyUncleJohnny412
What's the law that says they can't filter at the light? Because the only one mentioned in this thread is about motorcycles filtering. Penndot actively encourages bikes as a way to get through city traffic.
They're just trying not to get killed by ignorant people like you, who feel that being behind a cyclist for two blocks is such an inconvenience you have to flame them online.
If you're going to say it's against the law as your sole argument why 5 min of your time is worth someone's life, at least post the law.

PennDOT says you can do it in a “traffic jam.”

Post the damn law, since it's your only argument.

Someone else posted it above. Feel free to take a look.

There's no applicable law in this thread.
Sorry 5 minutes of your life can make you this pissed off. Just hope you don't pass me within arms length of your mirror.

Im not mad my friend, just curious as to the reasoning. I’ve never advocated for violence against cyclists or dangerous driving in any of my comments. Just looking for reasoning based on something beyond “we feel like we should be able to do this” and not seeing it.

You have your reasoning, it's the top comment.
The most dangerous place on the road for a cyclists is the last spot in line at a red light, because drivers are inattentive. Which is why half of collisions in Allegheny county are red-light rear-ends.
