What..........Sorry I just have to comment.............
How in the world can the feelings of pj7 be irrelevent to the discussion, when pj7 is the originator of this thread, and has done a great job trying to keep on subject.
In my oppinion, the only sane posts in this thread are in fact those of pj7.
The way you guys liberally and consistently make literal interpretations out of context in order to make irrelevant points is uncanny.
No one says pj7's
feelings (plural) are irrelevant.
Mr. Forester said one particular feeling -- that motor "vehicles themselves are inferior and superior respectively just by the shear numbers, mass in size, and damage that they can cause" -- is irrelevant to this discussion about whether cyclists -- the people -- are equal, inferior or superior to motorists.
This, by the way, is one of the problems with anthropomorphizing cars, and talking about "
cars and
bikes driving on the road" rather than
motorists and
cyclists on the road.
No one claims that cars are equal to bikes!
But it's important to remember that it's not cars driving down the road, it's motorists.
