Cyclists have and will always have a legal right to any road. Why? Because it's the law. Any interference, intimidation, or reckless driving by motorists is a violation of the law. Considering motorists don't give that right of way, leading to a cyclist being hit or losing control leading to death or injury...these motorists can be prosecuted for vehicular murder, attempted murder, manslaughter, reckless endangerment, and aggravated assault.

Embrace cyclists being on the road as part of your daily driving experience just like stop signs, traffic lights, and traffic. We live in The Villages, why is anyone in such a hurry not to respect the life and legal right of others to use our roadways if they wish? RELAX!
