Just think of all the self-righteous, obnoxious, vegan cyclists who now won't be hit by cars.
We need to bring the cars back!!

/sI use all forms of transport, including cycling. I do not recommended hitting anyone with a car, nor getting hit by a car.

It's an oppression of good, honest people who work in the office, contribute to the economy, and drive 2.5 metric tonnes vehicle at 60kmph on 30kmph zone. You can't do that to them!

Something about freedom or the economy or some tripe like that, I guess.

Yup. It's always laughable, we just have to ignore them. They can pay if they want to use their car. Also if they cared enough about the economy, they will walk or catch a bus to support the businesses. But we know they won't do that :)

It's not. NYC just did the same thing downtown after a long fight and it's been going great. Lots of whiny out of towners though.
