Maybe build infrastructure that gets people off the road so you can get to work on time.

Last I checked a bike takes up less space than a car.

In the town nearest to me there are bike lanes all over and these dickheads still feel the need to get into traffic lanes and fuck up the flow whilst obeying no traffic laws. Fuck cyclists. Keep your toys out of cars' way.

Wow, that's certainly a take...

Next time, take take a moment and think from their perspective. Do they want to be in the lane with cars? No! That's scary! So why are they there? Ideas:

  • cars parked in the bike lane - very common in my area
  • cars passing uncomfortably close and not giving the required 3'/1m space
  • cars consistently nosing into the bike lane from parking lots

And BTW, the law in most places state that bikes follow the same laws as cars, they just need to stay to the right of the roadway (i.e. the part before the bike lane). That means they're entitled to be in that right lane if they feel it's safer than the bike lane.

The law have been written by automobile clubs lmao

Yeah, it used to be that cars made way to people, but now people make way for cars. It's stupid.
