[quote=Anonymous][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] +1 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] Bicyclists simply want a safe means of travel. Being crammed into a side lane where cars, trucks and buses pass within a foot is, not safe.[/quote] Riding a bike in a major city is inherently dangerous. I know bicyclists are 100 percent in denial about the risks they are taking. But it is extremely dangerous and there's nothing the government can do to turn it into something that's even somewhat safe. [/quote]
