  • To your point, I have ridden literally thousands of miles, and I can count on one hand the number of times I’ve witnessed a car run a stop sign or red light. But in nearly every ride, countless cars veer out of their lane and into the shoulder, especially on left-hand bends.

    I will usually risk hugging the shoulder on long straight roads with good visibility, the feels like the best mix of personal safety and sharing the road with others, but never take my chances in the twisties. I want to be seen.

    Sorry, no, parents don’t intrinsically know what’s best for their child, and that’s perfectly OK. It’s OK to not know what to do, and it’s undeniably right to seek those answers from others who might.

    Parents thinking they always know what’s best is why so many otherwise totally normal kids grow up to be totally fucked up adults.
