Georgia, where we also welcome a return to slavery. Probably

"Our friends in Georgia are currently working to beat back an anti-bicycling bill, HB 689, in the state legislature. The law would require tags and registration for bicycles, remove the right to ride two abreast in the road, place strange requirements on group rides and make some unrestricted public roadways "off limits" to bicyclists. Georgia Bikes is working to stop this anti-bike bill from becoming law. This blog is cross-posted from their site -- read more below to learn how to make your voice heard and stop this bill."

Believe me, they'd be stupid enough to try it - given all the dumb stunts they pull. Gladys is never responsible for public transport stuff ups (it's always someone elses fault) and Duncan Gay blames everything on cyclists.

Note the cynical sarcasm in my reply earlier.

Don't say it too loud, we don't want 'Arold Skruloose and the Terrorgrafs editor finding out about it. One would be forced to buy another fax machine after borking one sending out thousands of messages of support and the other would be getting his boss, El Presidente to spend bulk dollars buying new politicos in the southern states of the US.
...whatever the road rules, self-preservation is the absolute priority for a cyclist when mixing it with motorised traffic.
