I agree. Rude bicyclists are the problem. It doesn't matter if it is going 5mph or 20mph, getting hit is going to hurt. And honestly I've never been almost hit

I agree. Rude bicyclists are the problem. It doesn't matter if it is going 5mph or 20mph, getting hit is going to hurt. And honestly I've never been almost hit by an e-bike, but I have definitely almost been hit by a bike going the wrong way or not obeying traffic sign(al)s. Let's just admit it: commuting in NYC, regardless of your mode, is absurdly dangerous and none of us obey traffic sign(al)s anyway so watch out.
