Some worry that New York City’s crackdown on unsafe cyclists leaves them facing greater consequences than drivers, even though cars cause more fatalities.

    Cyclists have an incredibly dangerous, toxic culture when it comes to ignoring traffic laws,

    motorists have an incredibly dangerous, GAS POWERED, MULTI TON WEAPON that is regularly used to harass and threaten cyclists. It would be really satisfying to see them get punished for all the anti-cyclist hate and violence.

      Are you agreeing with the person you responded too, and then adding more to it? Or are you saying cars are worse, so bicycles shouldn’t have to follow any laws? I’m just a little confused on where you are going with this, because your post seems strangely aggressive when the person you responded too said very clearly that they are for biking and public transit infrastructure, things which drastically lessen reliance on cars.

        Cyclists have an incredibly dangerous, toxic culture when it comes to ignoring traffic laws,

        singling out toxic CYCLISTS as if they’re as bad, or worse than the droves of incompetent and downright malicious vehicle drivers.

        Our society has an incredibly dangerous, toxic culture where people aren’t punished for their transgressions, even when given the responsibility of a multi-ton motor vehicle.
