Commentary: The plight of the cycling motorist
On Friday this week, the monthly Critical Mass bicycle demonstration will take place in Minneapolis.
During these events a large group of bike riders take over city streets, and the bicyclists often clash with motorists who get caught in the traffic.
Last month, 19 participants were arrested after a confrontation with police.
Commentator Peter Smith understands the tension between bikers and drivers. In fact, he empathizes with both sides.
