If your government is…

If your government is serious about reducing gridlock, you should invest in transit not only in the flashy ways that make headlines (subways, big projects), but get into the nitty-gritty of what makes transit work: make sure more buses are on the road and they have priority lanes, make sure streetcars get REAL priority (meaning they get to skip traffic lights so they don't get bunched up and we end up with three within 10 minutes and then none for the next 25 minutes). THESE and many more are the moves that could make a difference -- not catering to motorists when the world is facing a climate emergency.

The standards you apply to bike lanes to prove that they are being used is ridiculous. Most of these lanes aren't even safe enough in the first place because of the constant need to appease drivers.

Your proposed bike lane legislation is just another in a long line of proposals and decisions that demonstrate that you are not serious people. Good people who actually take these matters seriously will literally die for your ignorance. It says a lot about your character that you can sleep at night with that on your conscience.
