Pedestrians rule! and other rules

New York City's Transportation Alternatives has proposed Biking Rules: a New Streetcode for NYC Cyclists. Rule #1 should be #1 in any jurisdiction: Pedestrians Rule.

I would love to have been in the various meetings where they came up with the appropriately vague fifth rule: "Untangle Intersections," which advises cyclists to "Take a break and relax at red lights."
