Will a new grass-roots campaign for bicycle awareness give L.A. the attitude adjustment it needs toward cyclists?

Cyclists and motorists seem to be in a constant battle for the road. There are drivers who make it obvious they don't want to share "their space" with a slower-moving two-wheeler; and there's a segment of riders who further antagonize the situation by breaking traffic laws. It can make for a contemptuous atmosphere on the road, which adds yet another element of danger for drivers and cyclists alike.
