Sean, this is a very complete and convincing argument.

I agree with the yield idea, especially on a road like Sterling with bikes lanes, decent bike volumes and little side street traffic. Or if not written into law, at least have the cops use a little common sense instead of "bike safety" blitzes. If you want a bike safety blitz, take light truck drivers off the road.

But practically, you can only blow these signs safely if speeds are lowish (<15 km/h), noise is low (wind, loud vehicles) and there is no traffic on the side streets. There are no old, bold cyclists...
