> Why would we? Asking motor vehicle drivers to "share the road" with bicycle riders is asinine, destined to fail, and uniquely American. Don't worry it's not uniquely American: http://www.abc.net.au/news/2017-10-28/wa-to-introduce-minimum-safet-passing-laws-for-cyclists/9096024 http://www.abc.net.au/news/2017-10-28/wa-to-introduce-minimu... But is it asinine and destined to fail? I'm not sure. I think that it IS possible to share the roads but only under low-traffic and low-speed conditions. The worst offenders are cyclists on busy dual-carriageways during peak hour and it is horrendously dangerous, with two lanes of traffic forced to snake around a single cyclist. On side streets however I don't think it's a big deal at all.
