There are good and and bad motorists/ motorcyclists and cyclists but what seperates the cyclists from all other road users is accountability or rather lack of it, we as car drivers tend to obey most laws of the road because if we don't we will ultimately pay hefty fines be stigmatised by insurance rates and eventually lose our right to use our vehicles, in other words responsibility, none of which is a concern to the bad cyclist who runs red lights etc. and sees himself as above the law and basically untouchable.
