Lmao, wtf dude. You pass a bicycle at a place where you can't see the road ahead of you, and when a CSR comes your response is to run the bicycle over? You shouldnt have a drivers license. You are a danger to those around you.

No, you have to severely distort what I said to arrive at that conclusion. I said I don't do those things.

I depicted the various possible scenarios to explain why bike lanes are a good thing. If your solution is to just take away people's licenses because they passed a bike on the road just so you don't have to build bike lanes, then you might want to do some introspecting because you're part of the problem.

You literally said you would have to swerve into a bike if there was a car coming when you were passing at a curve bruh, there's no scenario where you should be passing at that time period. Its a dumbass argument.

The taking licenses away isn't because you passed someone, its because your idea of a valid response to you fucking up in this hypothetical scenario is to murder someone.
