Cyclists: Everyone hates me, tells me to ‘get off the road,’ or if I’m not on the road, I get told to get on it. There’s barely any legal thought or consideration given to where I’m allowed to be and if I get hit or killed it’s framed as being my fault.
Attempts at creating a safe place for cyclists to be that is separate from either of these places is seen as an inconvenience to the people who don’t want cyclists on the road, or off it, and so creating lanes and bike-specific infrastructure is met with stiff opposition.
Surely a licensing, inspection, and insurance framework won’t be abused to further erode the viability of cycling in a society that doesn’t want cyclists around in the first place.
Never mind that bicycles predated cars, used to be more popular and never needed these things in that time.
Insurance, inspections and licensing of motor vehicles was created because of motor vehicles and how dangerous they are.
There are other places in the world where lots of safe cycling infrastructure exists and it’s considered normal, even desirable to commute by bike, and they don’t have or need shit like this there.
