This sign on Route 127 near Murphysboro always amazes me. Since there is a sign attached which says "Bike Route", shouldn't the sign say "Drivers Use Caution"? Why is the responsibility on the cyclist, when they are the most vulnerable? That's like telling the wife of an angry, violent man to be careful not to upset him if she values her safety. The drivers NOT the cyclists should have the greater responsibility. When this becomes culturally normal, we'll all be safer out there.
