Why I voted was, these non violent convictions is taking up space in the prison system that could be used for violent crimes..its sad that you get less time for rape than possession of Marijuana.
Laws implemented in other states allowing bikers to yield at stop signs (which is essentialy what drivers in Missouri do in practice anyway) actually decrease crashes and it let's bikers avoid needless stop and gos.
Bikers aren't going to get in front of a 2 ton box of metal going 34 mph.
This is contradictory to the cities "zero pedestrian deaths" goals and should not be entertained.
If approved, it may also further feed the arrogance of the modern street cyclist, something unacceptable in a peaceful civilization.
