As a former cyclist I can tell you why they often don't stop at traffic lights and stop signs. It's for the same reason that many in golf carts don't stop. When approaching an intersection at a low rate of speed you can easily see if there is traffic coming. Yes, I know the law says stop but......well, there you go.

Maybe instead of share the road a sign should say...Be Kind to your neighbors. Didn't your Mother teach you that sharing is the right thing to do?
