Stop at all stop signs and red lights.

You might want to bone up on your rules.
A biker never has an obligation to walk a bike across a road. However, they are complete idiots if they don't use the bike lane when there is one!! Also, a biker doesn't need to ride on the shoulder. And check out my previous post here on who owns what portion of the road.
Sorry if I sound pissed, but you and every other know-it-all needs to spend a minute with your driver's handbook and make sure you are clear on what the rules are. I'd love to be able to take my manual with me and debate every driver that gives me crap on the road. I know and follow the rules because my safety is at stake. I just wish everyone would do the same.
And I agree with you 100% that bikers should follow all the rules.
