Halsey-Lewis-Stuyvesant Civic Association

As a 25 year resident of this area I want to protest the high handed and dangerous actions of the cyclists that Mayor Bloomberg has unleashed on us. These cyclists, predominately made up of preening, young men who treat the road like a part of the Tour de France, are out of control. They obey no traffic rules- run red lights, weave in and out of traffic and fail to yeild to pedestrians. They don't even proerly use their designated lanes properly. They are aggressive, hit, spit and curse at pedestrians who do not get out of their way and then speed away. Of course, there is no way to report them since they are unlicensed. It is time the City reigned in these cyclists. We don't need to add any more hazards on our streets.
