Except they would be wrong. In cities, cycling is almost always provably faster than driving or public transport because traffic becomes a non-issue and you can start immediately when a light turns green instead of waiting for the 5 vehicles in front of you to start moving or turning out of your way.

It sounds like to do this you would need to be side-by-side in the same lane with a car. Sounds quite reckless and dangerous. I'm all for cycling and walking in cities but that kind of behaviour is why cyclists get injured/killed. I read a few stories recently in the news about cyclists getting killed and one major repeating problem was that they came up the inside of another vehicle (in the same lane) which didn't see them a moved over into them.
