Weird, what's the ordinance that they can't?
Fun fact about our country, you can't be guilty of a crime that doesn't exist.

Show me where the state defines what a "traffic jam" is. The definition in your head doesn't count.
Your entire argument rests on the idea that PennDOT is deliberately telling cyclists to break the law in their official publications. That is an absurd assertion to make.

Today I learned that sitting at a red light by myself constitutes a traffic jam. Not gonna keep arguing with someone making clearly bad faith points.

The term "traffic jam" has no legal meaning, and the manual offers no definition. The manual is clearly referring to instances where cars are stopped.
I can tell that you have no fucking idea what you're talking about because you don't understand this. Terms like "traffic jam" are defined in a legal context when they're used in legal documents. What you think is a "traffic jam" is irrelevant.
Do you think PennDOT is intentionally telling bicyclists to break the law in their publications or not?

Nothing in that publication says you can just go to the front of the line at every light my guy. It says in “traffic jams” you can. Jesus fucking Christ.

What part of bikes are vehicles don’t you understand dude? You’re acting like traffic laws don’t exist. I genuinely don’t understand your point. Are bikes vehicles or not?

Your entire argument rests on the idea that PennDOT is deliberately and willfully telling people to do illegal shit in their manuals.
You have an assumed natural right to move under your own power in western jurisprudence. That which isn't explicitly banned is permitted. The law doesn't need to explicitly say I can filter on a bicycle; if it isn't banned, it's permitted.
You keep pretending to not understand this despite an average twelve year old child in Pennsylvania understanding it.
You're so mad about a bicyclist passing you two days ago that you're pissing your time away today, two days later, arguing about it. Get a life.

Funny how you were so adamant that it’s not a “competition” but once you get proven demonstrably wrong that facade completely crumbles lol.

> Bikes are considered vehicles
Statutes that apply to pedalcycles specifically mention pedalcycles, dingdong.
https://www.legis.state.pa.us/WU01/LI/LI/CT/HTM/75/00.035..HTM
Click on those words up there and hit control F, and type "pedalcycles" for an example.
I can't believe you're this stupid, so I'm going to assume that you're still mad about being made some cyclist's bitch two days later. Get over it and get a life.

Bikes are considered vehicles. Are cars allowed to just skip past other cars because they don’t want to wait? People like you are why everyone hates bikers lmao.
“Pennsylvania's Vehicle Code considers "pedalcycles" as vehicles and provides that every person riding a pedalcycle upon a roadway shall be granted all of the rights and responsibilities applicable to a driver of a vehicle, with certain exceptions discussed below.”

Do you really think PennDOT would publish illegal advice in an official publication?

And the law doesn't prohibit cyclists from not dying at an intersection.

I have a solution to traffic in the city: if we bulldoze every building for more lanes and more parking then we won't have any more traffic.
Granted we also won't have anywhere to drive to, but why would that matter if there's no traffic?

Interesting. My Google search results are quite different than yours. I get some crap mixed in if I don't specify "pittsburgh", but I can find it either way.

So bikes aren’t vehicles now? Vehicles don’t have to obey traffic laws? This argument is so dumb.
