In most states, a cyclist must follow all road rules associated to that of any other driver of any other vehicle. While there may be slight differences between towns that you can contact your Town Clerk on, most laws that apply in your state will also apply in your location you're traveling to.

Why are so many drivers unwilling to let cyclists go last at intersections?
There is no rule that cyclists should or must "go last" at intersections. Intersections are where cyclists and drivers are most at risk of accident. Cyclists have the same responsibilities as drivers, must obey the same rules of the road and have the same rights as drivers. in nearly every state a bicycle is considered to be a "vehicle" and therefore, just like motorists, cyclists must follow the rules of the road. When it comes to collisions occurring at intersections, liability usually boils down to who had the right-of-way - the car or the bike. There is no rule that a cyclist must "go last" at an intersection and one driver trying to make that occur could cause an accident because the other drivers are expecting that normal road rules will be followed by all drivers at the intersection. Remember that drivers and cyclists who don't follow established driving rules are at risk for being found at fault in any accident.

Do bicyclists stop at stop signs?
If you mean "do they," I would say rarely. I see bicyclists blow through stop signs all the time. If you mean, "Are cyclists required to obey traffic signs," the answer is yes. Cyclists are required to obey all the rules of the road, just like any other vehicle.

Why are so many people unwilling or unable to treat cyclists the same as other drivers?
The number of cyclists, both on motorcycles and bicycles, has increased dramatically. While many cyclists are confronted with road rage from annoyed drivers, most drivers give them a wide margin of error because the follow safe, prudent, mature driving habits. That practice has evolved from several well known factors.The first encounter with a cyclist is by sight and by their very nature a cyclist gives the appearance of vulnerability to a driver who is sitting protected inside a motor vehicle. A prudent driver, who is not easily annoyed while driving, knows the cyclist can lose control at any time due to road conditions or equipment failure and easily end up under their wheels. A prudent, mature driver also knows that many cyclists (not all) do not follow the rules of the road as diligently as most drivers do. Those factors motivate the prudent, safe and mature driver to give cyclists a wide berth so they don't end up colliding, no matter whose fault it may be.
Is it a law that bicylists ride on the same side as cars and can they be arrested if they don't?
Generally, road users must comply with the rules and regulations that apply to the vehicle. In most cases that would include cyclists obeying keep on the right or left, whichever is applicable in that jurisdiction. There may be exceptions for cyclists (or other road users) in special circumstances. These exceptions would be clearly marked and signed.
