If they’re going to make people ride bikes and scooters in traffic, then it should at LEAST be legal to do the Snow Crash thing where you use a hook-shot-style harpoon to catch free rides from cars.

    It really doesn’t matter to me, I hate big cities, and am currently in the process of selling my home to leave one.

      And that’s totally fine. You do you. But

      1. Why do those who like cities have to live in a car-centric hellscape
      2. More people on bikes makes cities more bareble even for people who for some reason like driving because more bikes = less traffic jams and less noise
      3. Why does biking automatically mean big city. Small cities are in theory even better for that since they tend to be more compact. Stuff is less spread out even if the relative density is lower.
