"Protected" bike lanes reduce the rights of cyclists (as too oft implemented). They, as a rule, are poorly designed and in lieu of true cycletracks. They make particular instances worse for all modes of transport. They are made not for cyclists, yet non-cyclists. There true purpose is anti-mobility. Control and intimidation. They are part of an alternate agenda rather than of truly promoting cycling or cyclists. The dimming of the mind and the dimming of the eyes is why the Democrats are a thing of the past. The "nice things" are offensive and manipulative. It is good that we are eliminating those in power that push this extreme agenda so that we can return to good design and decency. The "more direct action" isn't democracy, it is terrorism. It is "paranoid far-Left culture warring." The idea is to offend and to be offensive. And ever increasing intimidation. So it is a getting of just deserts. ~&, unfortunately, cyclists are the worse off for it. Having destroyed the roads and increased antagonism, being so blind to have no idea but to keep blindly riding off into the sunset with fake science, manipulated and misleading statistics. Is there no shame? "Take the lane!"
What else can Donald Trump destroy on your watch? How about bike lanes? - they must be a national security threat. The Social Security Building? Must be a reminder of the nice things we got from the New Deal. He and you Republicans have already taken away SNAP and HealthCare subsidies, and want to take away Social Security. Of course you have absolutely nothing to offer the people of this nation except an out of control war of choice in the Middle East, disruption of the world economy, higher prices, more bankruptcies by American Farmers and of course the Honor of the United States Of America which Trump drags in the mud every day.
And it is on your watch senator, as you sit by and watch it happen. Masked rogue federal government goons in the streets throwing people into concentration camps where they will probably die - and have died. Senator, we now resemble Nazi Germany or the Soviet satellite states of East Germany and Hungary. We are lucky you are leaving the Senate, and hopefully replace you with Roy Cooper because God knows you have not done one thing to rein in the Orange Menace as the rest of us watch our nation be flushed into the sewer of history.
Name ONE right-wing policy that actually advances any social good. Everything they have is either about stealing money or hurting some group of people. That's it.
I have long felt that when humanity, at long last, has to answer for our sins, one of the few things we can offer as mitigation is the invention of the bicycle.
How does he have that authority? This is a 'city of DC' issue

This... sounds like some John Forester stuff, and that's not good
This is just in time for no one to be able to afford fueling up a car.
Because he is unable to ride a bike.
It's going to take decades to undo all the crap Trump is foisting on DC just because he wants to his stamp on the place.
What, is he the city manager? Doesn't he already have a job?
Is there anything that felon 47 can't muck up?
I'm just wondering what the angle is on this. What benefit is there in doing this, even for such a smash-and-grab administration?
We ain't seen nuttin' yet.
Dear Senator Tillis:

What about sidewalks? Sidewalks are stupid, and woke!
Roads could be wider without sidewalks or homeowners could get more yard space.
Also true without lanes for private car storage on public property.
Trump: Bike lanes kill eagles.
How much you wanna bet this interferes with plans to hold himself accountable big military parade?
Name ONE right-wing policy that actually advances any social good. Everything they have is either about stealing money or hurting some group of people. That's it.
What, were there no kittens to drown today?
Where the fuck does DFT get the authority to do this and all his other arbitrary acts of destruction?
Spineless, cowardly Republicans come to mind...oh yeah, and the "Supreme" Court.
73 million people of the clay. You know, morons.
“…bicycle injury crashes decreased by 91 percent.”
As if THAT matters.
Yeah, those are probably Biden/Harris voters anyway.
