On the eve of another CicLAvia — with 10-miles of Los Angeles streets cleared of cars -- there is growing tension between bicycle riders and drivers of automobiles. Are hit-and-run incidents on the increase? Was at least one case intentional? We hear what the LAPD has to say about a new ordinance giving cyclists the power to fight back. Also, a new poll on the LA riots of 1992 — 20 years later. On our rebroadcast of today's To the Point, there may be a drone in your future… like it or not.
