As a cyclist, I am also trying to get somewhere, and I don't enjoy being on the road with motorists either.
Based on your comment, I have to assume we live in different areas. I live in the city, and generally it is better and faster to bike because one can bike almost as fast as a car due to not needing to wait for traffic and there's no need to find parking at the destination. From my POV, the motorists I have to share the road with are driving on low throughput streets and generally don't belong on the streets I am traveling down.
Do you live out in the country with 2 lane roads? A small town?
- nemo44x 4y agoI take the subway when in the city or a taxi if it’s faster. People on bikes get hit all the time and police investigations nearly always find the bike rider at fault. The town I’m in outside the city is not a small town. There’s very little that’s more annoying than a group of spandex clad Tour de France wannabes taking up the entire road so they can cosplay.
- matsemann 4y ago> police investigations nearly always find the bike rider at fault. Source please. Sounds like a confirmation bias on your part. > There’s very little that’s more annoying than a group of spandex clad Tour de France wannabes taking up the entire road so they can cosplay. You sound jealous. Get a hobby yourself, perhaps?
