The person riding against traffic is making it unsafe.
- jakelazaroff 3y agoCan you just re-read the comment to which I directed that question? They were claiming that e-bike riders choose to ride alongside pedestrians because the roads are too dangerous. If you really want to pull in that comment of mine from elsewhere in the thread, I’ll expand on it. My point there was that designing our streets for cars has made them dangerous for bikes.
- frumper 3y agoIt’s more dangerous when cyclists go down one way streets the wrong way instead of going down the correct street.
- jakelazaroff 3y agoOkay, I don’t really know what you’re trying to do here. It doesn’t sound like you’re interested in conversation. Have a nice rest of your day.

I never said "alongside" because that is BS. Sidewalks should be for the exclusive use of pedestrians and wheelchairs.
