"They are not hazardous at any speed, especially at speeds one should be riding when approaching intersections."

Say what now? If several cyclists have suffered injuries by hitting bollards, how can they possibly be "not hazardous at any speed"? Your statement is absolutely and demonstrably false.

Also, while bollards at intersections are obnoxious, the real issue is bollards that are NOT at intersections, such as the bollards at the top of the MVT/Custis connector bridge over the GW pkwy, as pointed out in the article. Finally, I would bet that the people hitting these bollards are less experienced cyclists who aren't as familiar with the trails and not the superbikers that everyone likes to complain about.
