MODERATORS
What's always baffling about stuff like this (not specifically this, everyone knows Trump is an idiot) is that they don't realise that whatever is good for pedestrians and bikes is also great for cars. It takes away cars from the road which makes traffic so much better. It makes it easier to provide parking because it doesn't have to be right next to the destination.
They're only thinking of the road-raging obese morons whose body weight is only exceeded by their sense of entitlement. They can barely waddle into Walmart. They hate people who walk or ride bikes.
But don't you see, if they just had one more lane available to cars, there would be no traffic jam... It's the same with the Deutschlandticket. Everybody's crying how much tax payer money is used for it instead of being happy that more people stay off the road for a relatively low price.
Also without bike lanes bikes will more likely have to take the lane and drivers just love that.
