More like, the auto-lobby pushes motor vehicle infrastructure at the expense of cycling infrastructure.
Would you rather cycle helmet-less on the road or helmeted on a dedicated cycle path?
- alrs 12y agoI ride helmetless on the road, and I avoid cyclepaths, as I'm far less scared of car drivers pulling something sketchy than I am of rollerblader-dogwalker-strollers pulling something sketchy. I also live in California, where case law has determined that government is never responsible for injuries that occur off the road and on a bike path. Additionally, it is flat-out unethical to ride faster than 10mph if you're weaving through pedestrian foot-traffic. The auto lobby loves cycle infrastructure. It gets cyclists off the road.
