    I’d love to see a bike trying to ride down a busy fucking road and not get its ass ran over. Maybe your little suburban hillbilly elitist streets have people pedaling down at a scant fraction of the speed of real cars, but that shit doesn’t fly anywhere else.

      I live in a city, the concept of suburbs barely exists here. Also cyclists ride on roads quite often, especially sports bikes on roads leaving the city. Within the city also, but with bike lanes it’s harder to see. Just now there are big panels in the city for an awareness campaign reading “the street is for everyone”, imagine.

      Last i checked cars had a steering wheel and a brake pedal, so " running over" someone is a matter of negligence or incompetence. Not sure which one you think is your problem, but that makes it your responsibility. Saying that the road is for everyone is a fact, not sure why you perceive that as elitist, which has literally the opposite meaning.

      Finally I am curious, what is a “real car” lol
