So who should get off the roads?
Taking a lane is not antagonizing anyone. Agonozing over having to go a cyclist's speed for 30 seconds is a childish reaction that thankfully only a small percentage of people actually exhibit.
You are in Wilmington too....that type of area has nothing to do with what is being discussed here.
You attack me constantly on this. For future reference Philly and Wilmington are not riding
envirnoments that I speak of other than Philly being dangerous. In those people are stopped
for longer than they are driving. I worked at MBNA, I know Wilmingon traffic. A skateboard can
get through Wilmingon quicker than a car.
We are discussing holding up moving traffic. Going 12mph when the rest of the traffic is at 40 or
45.
Go take the lane on I-95 to try to get a better understanding of what is being discussed.
