Comments from a certain Eric Noll in The Canberra Times (link to the comment and the comment is below) in reply to Warwick Bradly Sunday, 21 August 2005 is saying in one word or another cyclists don't pay their way.

Even those Eric never ever provide evidence to prove this and doesn't like it when asked to provide the evidence not only for this but other road safety matters as well.

And which is similar to what a certain Michael F Lane does, doesn't like when people ask him to provide evidence:

Your piece on costs exceeding revenues relative to vehicle accident damages etc, is an arguable point, but, what in the world has that got to do with the fact that cyclists still do not contribute anything. All other vehicle users do, why are cyclists exempt. Cyclists certainly have more potential to incur serious injury than does a motor vehicle occupant and yet they make no contribution at all toward the costs associated with such an event. Seems a bit one sided to me
