Parisians! smarter than their American counterparts with regards to road systems!

I'm kidding but not. This is advanced. like Amsterdam.

Cyclists know getting out ahead of traffic before the light turns green is a safety measure - you don't want a car tailgating you, especially in this country where cyclists are run down everyday.

but lawmakers here in the US are far from persuaded. Voters and lawmakers are motorists for the most part and don't understand how cycling works, much less how cycling benefits their communities - in terms of walking safety and yes, even motorist safety.

when will the US wake up to data?
