The original post was ill-informed, insulting, boring and riddled with assumptions. If you are going to make assumptions about who is posting on here at least put up a poll to confirm or disprove those assumptions. I have always assumed that the median age on here was closer to thirty than twenty although I could be wrong. Furthermore I think that most of the people on here are just trying to get to work and home safely while on a bike. We post angry threads when someone endangers our life because we are fragile compared to cars and SUVs. Also I completely disagree with the poster who said if you take a SUV driver out of his car and put him on the bike he is still the same person. First you can't get 99 out of 100 drivers on a bike. Bike commuters are already to some degree different than drivers to begin with. Second if you get somebody out of there steel cage and expose them to the dangers of the road their behavior and attitude will change or they won't survive long.
Edit: On second thought this is a fun fight. Don't move it.
