[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It seems pretty damn stupid to put your life on the line to get to work.

I'd either get a car like everyone else, or take a bus. But it's idiotic to risk your life (it it really IS that dangerous) just to get to work.

You can't tell me a bike is the ONLY option these people have. No one believes that.

Therefore it's a choice. And they are CHOOSING to risk their life to get to ....... their desk at work.

That's just F'ing stupid.

If I'm gonna risk my life, it'll be to save my kids or my wife. Not for getting to my job. [/quote]

It's pretty stupid of you to drive to work. So you know you're risking your life/health every time you do it?  You should get a job where you telework only otherwise you don't love your wife and kids.[/quote]

Are you seriously debating the relative safety of driving vs biking on River Road?[/quote]

No, just mocking dumb arguments over safety.[/quote]

Explain how it's mocking when it's an indisputable fact that in a collision between a cyclist and a car, the cyclist is going to be hurt or killed, and the car driver might need to .. go to a car wash to get the blood off? [/quote]

Safety is about risk, which is both probability and consequences.  The probability of dying or being seriously injured while either biking or driving is quite low especially if you're not an idiot (texting while driving, blowing through red lights, etc).[/quote]
