<p>I agree with you Steve. Communicating laws to motorists, cyclists is critical as well as "cyclists are your friends and loved-ones" campaign would go a long way in Chicago and the surrounding area. There are other cities and states that have more positive relationships between cyclists and motorists. </p>

<p>One thing is for sure imo- that public education on bike laws is poorly done in Chicago. Having a good PSA campaign would go a long way to solving the problem of people not knowing the laws, Idaho Stop (if it happens here) included. </p>

<p>When the laws themselves become more important (and holier in and of themselves) than the people they are intended to serve our society has a problem.</p>

I would argue that like any change in the law the confusion at first will be outweighed by the benefit to society. Eventually the normative behavior will reconcile with the law and we would have a more rational set of rules. If everyone derailed changes in legislation mearly because it wouldn't catch on immediately we would still be teaching King Hammurabi's stone tablets in class.<br/>
