Streets of Chicago are difficult to navigate

Letters to the Editor

Forgotten rules and near misses on Chicago's streets

Chicago is not a bike town. This is no quaint French city scene. Chicago is filled with angry, foolish, ignorant, spoiled and arrogant drivers, pedestrians and bikers.

No rules apply. None are enforced. Rules are forgotten and flouted.

The Disneyesque Divvy program has added to the near misses seen all around -- out of place in these big-city streets where concentration, seriousness and responsibility are called for.

Humanity is diminished. We might not get it back.

-- P. Winters, Crystal Lake
