she’s wrong. not only are bikes vehicles, but given the right accoutrements, they can even be cars.

Every time I read "comfort chamber" I find myself wondering if I was saved from carbrain only by being too tall for the seats I grew up with. Being inside a car is only marginally more comfortable than being on an airplane, people who enjoy it are crazy and/or tiny and/or way way richer than me.

Yeah start trying to do that in the US and you'd have chuds in huge trucks just idling in public transit/light rail lanes waiting for someone to touch their car because then they can invoke castle doctrine and murder someone without ever seeing the inside of a courtroom

I still maintain that interacting with drivers in any way as a pedestrian will eventually get you assaulted or shot.

No kidding. At first I thought the cycling habit that drivers hate most is putting up ghost bikes. That would be an article worth publishing. Instead it's about bikes taking the lane.

Law here says that cyclists should take the entire lane because not doing so actually increases the risk of getting hit.
