"The problem is there isn't a set of comprehensive rules for bikers to follow"

There certainly is - cyclist behavior is regulated by law in very jurisdiction, including DC, VA, and MD

" at least not that anyone is required to learn"

If you mean there is no exam cyclists must take to get a license, thats true. Its also true for pedestrians.

" (or enforce). These rules do exist for pedestrians and drivers, and police exist to enforce these rules. I've never seen (or heard of) a biker getting stopped for endangering others on the road., ."

you havent been paying attention then - DC police give thousands of tickets each year to cyclists.
