People on bikes may be rude and may not follow the rules, but can’t be aggressive.

When a man with a .45 meets a man with a rifle, the man with a pistol will be a dead man.

“Mainstream trend of all cars bad” which mainstream is that? Because last I checked Australia, Canada, the US and the UK are all still extremely car centric. This also completely ignores the fact that it is car centrism that causes the disregard for pedestrians and people on bikes. Finland and Denmark certainly don’t seem to have an abundance of poeple developing bike blindness and they have mixed traffic zones all over the place.

Your logic is pretty silly. By that same beat we must really like work and paying taxes. I dont know any ‘car centrists’ in my daily, but maybe you do.
