Girl who rides in the travel lanes of Fort Pitt Bridge

I've seen every once in a while for about a year, you get on the Fort Pitt bridge downtown and exit on West Carson St. Your riding a Trek FX weaving in and out of the traffic on the bridge while I ride safely on the pedestrian walkway. You look at me like I'm a wimpy rider and I look at you like you are crazy. No helmet, no lights just crazy scary riding. Please stop scaring me and use the path not the road.

Oof. Not only is that very dangerous, it's also illegal. The bridge is part I-376 and part I-279, and riding on the freeway is against the vehicle code - 3511(d)
