Reasons for cyclist harassment vary.

Some motorists think cyclists have no right to the roads – which, under Oklahoma, is wrong. Whatever the reason for harassment, avoid escalating the conflict. A cyclist is at a decided disadvantage against a motor vehicle. Maintain a level head, take a snapshot on your cell phone, memorize the license plate and report it to the police. Be safe. Be courteous. Share the road.
