Why would you mow down the bollards? You're acting like a bully, just because you're big and strong (in other words: you have a car), you're throwing your weight around. The bollards are an essential part of keeping cyclists safe, and you driving a multi-ton hunk of metal doesn't give you the right to endanger cyclists in "protest".
- newnewpdro 7y agoIf you're going to get your panties in a wad over rolling over some bollards at 2MPH I'll spare you the stories of the real shenanigans. No cyclists were threatened or harmed, there was nobody at risk. Bollards won't stop an inattentive driver from hitting anything, as evidenced by my trivial rolling over them without even scratching my car's bumper.
- Karrot_Kream 7y agoYour "evidence" doesn't mean anything, multiple statistics [1] have shown that protected bike lanes are safer for cyclists. Moreover I'm saddened that you have so little consideration for vulnerable road users.
