Politicians in the Bay Area want to remove bike lanes from the Richmond-San Rafael bridge because they are worried about traffic congestion.

Cyclists say removing these bike lanes will put them in danger.

Why are all the top level comments from people defending reckless driving?

Based on this and a couple recent other threads I am becoming pretty convinced that more and more of the people on Lemmy are children.

Edit: I can admit that I was a dumbass who thought that I could do all the things while driving as a teenager. I am guessing the people downvoting me are either teenagers or people who don’t remember being teenagers.

Did anyone call him out for this during the meeting?

There's a public comment section, right? Straight up ask why he feels it's appropriate be deciding matters of public saftey while actively endangering the public himself by distracted driving during this very meeting.

From my experience with a different fight in NYC, these people don't give a shit. They have no shame, they only care about their golden kickbacks.

How does putting slow-moving bikes into traffic somehow fix congestion? Some dipshits are under the same impression in Canada, too... Like, have they all forgotten how much a single cyclist can fuck up traffic?

[–] Aganim@lemmy.world 21 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

The solution is obviously that the bikers are to join the daily traffic jam in a car, instead of entirely skipping the queue like selfish bastards.

/s, for the satire-impaired.

They want to scare cyclists into not cycling at all

The bike lane is like 1/3rd the size of the car lane and has more people on it.

Is that even legal? Just holding your phone while driving can cost you a fine of €. 430 here.

[–] Cort@lemmy.world 35 points 2 weeks ago

It's probably on a hands free mount rolling at the camera angle.

However, it's still illegal to have video playing within view of the driver, so he's still breaking the law

It's supposed to be mildly infuriating, but it actually made me laugh. Not because I like or agree with the idea, but just at the absurdity of it.
