curbhugging has acheived an even sounder endorsement, this time by john forester no less!

in another thread, other agendas, john opined he doesn't care that (motor vehicles) overtake (bicyclists) at intersections. Destination positioning to john forester is inconsequential, bikes being overtaken at intersections is not a safety concern to john forester..

curb hug all you want. you can even curbhug into intersections, no concerns from the 'creator' of the term effective cycling about being destination postioned at intersections.

here's the quote -
So what if overtaking takes place in intersections. I have never claimed that it should not.

in the words of the infamous john forester about overtaking at intersections, "So what?" :roflmao:

curbhug, it's VC, and if you're to the right of traffic passing thru intersections, "SO WHAT?" says John forester.
