More on Cyclists and Pedestrians
Don't block the crosswalk when waiting for a light. Stop behind the crosswalk or stopline as per NYS law.
Don't ride on the sidewalk. It's not just a bad idea, it's the law (misdemeanor in NYC if riding near pedestrians on sidewalk).
NYC is crowded! Don't try to squeeze through traffic gaps if peds are near, they might squeeze in too.
Brooklyn Bridge path – lower your expectations or use the Manhattan Bridge.
