LAPD Chief Charlie Beck On Bicyclist’s Side

It looks like bicycling advocates and bicyclists everywhere have finally gotten their wish: LAPD Chief Charlie Beck has vowed to do a better job protecting the “most vulnerable commuters” on the road.

The promised course of action potentially includes new training for LAPD officers as well as a document specifically outlining an officer’s responsibility to bicyclists.

The conflict between drivers and bicyclists springs eternal, but the case of “The Road Rage Doctor” has galvanized much of the bicycling community.
