6th and Rio Grande This is always a nice one. You're not supposed to ride on the sidewalk on 6th, but if you're lucky, instead you'll just get clotheslined by someone's car door. Hang up the phone!
Austin's Bad Drivers was founded to make inconsiderate drivers aware of the threat they pose to bike safety and transportation. Pictures of drivers acting irresponsibly, not paying attention, or disregarding bike lanes and crosswalks are taken on the scene with a helmet cam, posted to the site, and a sticker is sometimes placed on the driver's vehicle to alert them that they have been featured on Austin's Bad Drivers. The hope of this site is that public shame will help driver's in Austin be more responsible and courteous to bike riders and less bike-related accidents will occur.
