The aggressive nature of drivers in Bozeman has gotten out of hand. I witness illegal action on the road EVERY time I
leave my home. I am an experienced biker, an observant person and I wear a helmet and lights. I will continue to
choose alternative transportation which is the REAL solution to a changing climate (less cars, not just electrical cars).
Today, I was accosted in the middle of the day while riding my bike to the intersection of E. and S. Willson. A large
BRIGHT BLUE Ford-250 rolled down their window, yelled at me to get off the road when I was biking LEGALLY on the
road, then after I crossed through the intersection, threw trash at me which I had to avoid going into my wheel. I
called the cops on them and reported their license plate. I urge the city to take real action to promote alternative
transportation, educate about sharing the road, enforce laws, and fine bad drivers. This needs to be upfront and
center as Bozeman grows. Alternative transportation is key.
If you would like to submit additional documents (.pdf, .doc, .docx, .xls, .xlsx, .gif, .jpg, .png, .rtf, .txt) along with
your comment, you may alternately address comments@bozeman.net directly to ensure receipt of all
information.
Thank you,
City Of Bozeman
