[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This entire experiment, which includes everything else the Council has done in the last two years, is based on an almost religious belief that congestion increases safety and has no economic effect.[/quote]

They also told us that if we build more bike lanes, bicycling would become popular, except the number of lanes has exploded and the number of bicyclists has been shrinking for years.

"The city has built about 20 miles of bike lanes in the past five years, but despite that, the portion of D.C. residents who bike to work peaked in 2017 and has decreased each year since, falling from 5 percent to 3 percent. So who are these lanes for?"

Both you and the stupid journalist that wrote that article are completely ignorant of basic principles of statistics.

The only thing you’ve demonstrated is that you waste an inordinate amount of time hunting for snippets of information to lend false credence to your insane biases.

Data on actual bike trips recorded in DC shows that bike use has absolutely exploded over the past few years.[/quote]
