[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There also needs to be a much greater effort to increase mass transit into and within DC. Our metro and bus grid is pretty pathetic, and transit times using WMATA are frankly outrageous. We must give drivers a good alternative to their shitty cars.[/quote]

As I have posted here and in other threads, the people who want to drive, or who HAVE to drive, should be the biggest advocates for bike lanes and better mass transit.[/quote]

Bike lanes make traffic worse and parking harder. People who drive should push their elected officials to start ripping out bike lanes. [/quote]

People who drive, yet find driving insufficiently convenient, should try using a different mode of transportation. [/quote]

Same goes for bicyclists? [/quote]

Astonishingly, this is actually one reason why more people don't travel by bike: because it's often inconvenient and unsafe.

The difference is that bicyclists benefit when more people travel by bike, whereas drivers are worse off when more people travel by car.[/quote]
