    At the same time one should not attempt to rent a bike if you are too inept of a rider to avoid common obstacles like curbs, sewer grates, or potholes. I rode a bike for a long time. You should not go faster than your ability to recognize and avoid stationary obstacles. That is a minimum responsibility of a bike rider I would say.

      If the road in front of me appears unobstructed, I should be able to check my blind spot without falling in a ditch.

      Imagine if the freeway had features in the middle of the lanes that could total your car. People would lose their minds if it wasn’t fixed.
