I noticed that people who use those "bike sharing" bikes...they're pretty much all the same thing...from what I've experienced; Houston, Chicago, DC, London, LA, Boston, etc are more for tourists and commuter convenience have different attitudes about riding than those who own their own bikes. Riders who rent the bikes are more cautious and those who own their own bike are more militant as to who has more of a right to the road. I've been caught off many times by some douche in a $2,500 Trek in rush hour traffic and these guys wonder why they end up a statistic.

Renters tend to stay in the designated bike lanes.
