And as always, when this debate comes up, the reply is very simple: pedestrians and bicyclists don't endanger other people's lives, car drivers do. That is real

  Eh? See my comment "unwilling to acknowledge the excesses and poor behaviour of cyclists". Cyclists certainly endanger people, you could have done a 5 second fact check before posting. Eg. Cyclists injured record number of pedestrians last year, data reveals Collisions on pavements and at zebra crossings surged nearly 60 percent in five years https://www.lbc.co.uk/article/cyclists-injured-pedestrians-record-5HjdDww_2/ https://www.lbc.co.uk/article/cyclists-injured-pedestrians-r...

    > unwilling to acknowledge the excesses and poor behaviour of cyclists when talking about the echo chambers, aren't you painting all cyclists with the same brush here? And even if that were the case, why do you think he should fight that battle? He chooses to go after reckless car drivers, who cause thousands of deaths per year (including his father's). Why would you expect him to engage in this whataboutism on bicyclists?

      You are responding to a comment pointing out you had said something clearly false, but have not addressed it.

        I didn't think I needed to respond to a comment that (I guess willingly) missed the mark. > don't endanger other people's lives > Cyclists certainly endanger people Your article talks about 600 injuries caused by cyclists, I am talking about 15000 deaths a year caused by cars. And you try to frame it as a "both sides bad (but actually cyclists are worse because of their entitlement and bad behavior)"
