You probably misheard. The laws typically say that bicyclists have the same rights and responsibilities as the operators of vehicles. Usually drivers of motor vehicles have *additional* responsibilities (e.g. registration, licensing, and insurance requirements.).
It's in the vehicle code in California, and also in the driver's handbook the DMV hands out to prepare for a written test. You are expected to know this stuff.
Bill I am new to this NG. I live in Minnesota. It is in their vehicle code to....BUT, I am constantly getting honked at. It is to the point where, I chase them down and, remind them about the law. When they honk I shake my head. I won't move, until, I get a green light.

You need bike cops (police on bicycles.) When they end up harassing a police officer, who might not take kindly to that, they will get some feedback that will get their attention.
