i think i found a way for us cyclist to "get back" at bad drivers. it all starts with some driver doing something that threatens our safety. i will use the example of being "buzzed" since that is the most likely violation for us on open roads. first, get a "bullet-cam" that records video at a high resolution. like the Vio cam or Elmo cam. when said driver buzzes by, it is all captured on video. when you get home and download the video, isolate a few frames that show the driver's license plate and a few other snaps of the driver coming too close. second, use a license plate reverse lookup service (these apparently are not free, but very affordable) and find who the driver's and their address. third, write a letter that lists your state's laws regarding things like "bicycles hold the same rights and duties as motor vehicles" and "a vehicle is required to overtake a vehicle with a safe amount of room between the two vehicles", etc. this letter will also state that the possible penalties for "buzzing" as well as "future failure to overtaking a cyclist will result in legal action". fourth, send the letter and a few snaps of the driver "buzzing" you and a close-up of their license plate via certified mail. lastly, send ANOTHER letter to local police authorities describing what happen along with the same photos sent to the driver. not bad, eh! TAKE THAT DANGEROUS DRIVERS!!
