re "bicyclists will also step up to the plate and take responsibility of predictable and proper riding behavior."
As a vehicle operator it only takes the 1 in 100 cyclists that behave as if the road is their domain which encourages indifference towards all cyclists. 
As a group, the 1 in 100 cyclists remind me of BMW owners.
You know, the type that will park in the center of 2 parking stalls to prevent adjacent cars from dinging their status.
