    “People more likely to do thing if thing doesn’t carry the potential to kill them.”

    Was this a necessary study?

      When dealing with carbrain bad faith, it could help to have studies to point out the obvious.

    Honestly, I would bike more if places I need to go like the supermarket had protected bike lanes. The main roads around me get pretty crazy and are not fun to bike on

        No, just for bike and pedestrian projects. Automobile capacity expansion projects often just happen without having to justify themselves to anywhere near the same extent.

    Biking is great fun, and very practical. Getting run off the road is not fun. Dying in a dangerous intersection is impractical and unsustainable, for the average non-imortal worker.

    Who knew knowing you were not likely to die when you ride your bike on public roads increases peoples desire to ride on public roads.

    How strong are these posts or barriers?

    I hope they are capable of holding off the stupid oversized american trucks.

    This isn’t sarcasm, I’m just curious
