Another thing to consider is that bicyclists behaving badly are almost always only a risk to themselves, while drivers behaving badly are a risk to others. You can’t compare the two.
- Fricken 6y agoWhy do people on the internet say that 2 things can't be compared immediately after comparing them?
- ryantgtg 6y agoBecause people on the internet are pointing out two things that are commonly compared, and then adding further details to argue why they should not be compared.
- vorpalhex 6y agoCyclists can absolutely cause car accidents and get people killed. A cyclist on the road (in the US) is a vehicle and is expected to act like one, which means following all traffic control devices and signs.
- ryantgtg 6y agoSure. But I’m a busy guy and I’m trying to stick to a proportional amount of rage for each mode, based on how much damage they inflict on others. How many of the 30k roadway deaths per year (in the US) do you think we can attribute to scofflaw bicyclists putting others at risk?
