Watch: “People Behaving Badly” Consults Streetsblog on Bike Lane Safety

1:52 PM PDT on August 21, 2013

Stanley Roberts asked me to come out yesterday for one of his "People Behaving Badly" segments and help explain how drivers should legally make a right-turn, since CBS 5 didn't get it quite right.

Hopefully, I'll have fewer jitters the next time I'm in front of a camera.
