Unlike a car or golf cart a bike that is not motorized some of them really should be forced to be registered vehicles with plates and insurance. A bike, a human powered one cannot accelerate quickly from a dead stop. At a stop sign, you need to be concerned with the traffic in front of you as well as cars or golf carts who will decide to drive around you.
In other words, that is an excuse for breaking the same law that cyclists expect everyone else to follow?????
