Bike lanes should not trump…

Bike lanes should not trump traffic lanes. Most bicyclists I encounter do not stop at red lights, weave in and out of traffic and cut people off. If they followed the rules that drivers have to, it wouldn’t be so bad sharing a road. Why aren’t cops ticketing them when they run a red light? Realistically most people will not bike to work even if it was an option. Arriving at work sweaty and dirty from weather, dust, mud, etc. With no place to shower at work, is a ridiculous ask to the general public. Most of us can’t afford to live in a city and are forced to live out of town. The people demanding more bike lanes are small in quantity and should not outweigh the voices of the many. I think you need a referendum to hear from the actual public voters, and not just political figures, the media or government officials, not on just this subject but on MANY subjects the government is just making huge and impactful decisions for the public without even asking us what we want.
