    I believe it. There are so many people in the US that are legit against bike lanes, or bikes even being on the side of the road. I’ve had people throw trash at me from my car windows while riding my bike, and on 2 occasions have had people chase and attempt to hit me with their cars on purpose. Using a bicycle to commute is potentially putting your life in danger.

      That’s genuinely horrific. I walk a lot, and I swear some lunatics don’t stop on purpose as I cross the intersection. It’s saddening how people can be so unfeeling without a cause.
