[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Has any cyclist ever considered the fact that staying out of dangerous car traffic virtually guarantees they’re not being hit by or hitting a car? Cyclists do what you want but don’t expect other tax payers to foot the bills for your foolishness. Grow up sometimes we don’t get to annoy lots of other people even though we really want to.[/quote] Cyclists are taxpayers too. Cyclists have the legal right to use any public space (except for sidewalks in the old city) Riding on a road isn't "foolishness," it is what is needed to get from one place to another. If the car traffic is dangerous, it is incumbent, and the law, for the car driver to be vigilant and not hit pedestrians or cyclists. That is why there are licenses and insurance, something not required for humans to walk or bike. Driving is a privilege. Government treats walking and biking as a right, in that respect.[/quote]
