John Keller can suck my balls
Who cares about stinky bike lanes anyway, just add one more lane bro, surely adding a 20th lane will make all the traffic congestion go away, who would even want to ride a bike instead of getting stuck in traffic jams all day? /s
Anyone with half a brain who lives in Boston likely doesn’t want more cars on the road.
Is this some.sort of American polotical ploy I'm unaware of? accuse your opponent of being sane and sensible, is that a pejorative now ?
Always has been
This is like being accused of being super attractive and nice
I plead the 5th.
Don't worry mate, your alibi's rock solid on this one.
Oh what a travesty, not bike lanes in crowded Boston. Someone please save me from this horror
If you ride a bike, you're a gay commie terrorist climate hugger!
... with huge thighs and calves
Dare I.... Accuse you of wanting bike lanes too?
Weird traffic loving idiots
Bike lanes reduce traffic
They would need the ability to think critically to understand how it reduces traffic. Sadly, they can't think beyond two steps in front of their own faces.
But my commute -s
I never heard the world laugh but yes, it's laughing at America.
At this point I didn't even drive in Boston anymore, I take the commuter rail into the city and subway from there. Why people are acting like that's an absurd possibility is astonishing to me. Yes, traffic in Boston sucks, but mainly because too many people from outside would rather drive in and complain about the traffic they're causing than the cheaper and much easier alternative of taking transit into the city. As for the actual residents, there's great public transportation, just fucking take it. You really wanna pay all that money for parking and vehicle maintenance just to sit at every red light to get somewhere maybe 3 min faster? Get a grip. If I lived in the city the first thing I'd do is sell my car and use my electric assist bike for everything, I already use it to get to work in the Metrowest, you can do it in the city.
Fuck bike lanes. We need politicians with spines who will install barriers in roads to block cars from them
I thought in the Netherlands there were bike paths entirely separate from roads. The Netherlands has so many great urban planning ideas we need to copy.
I much prefer Berkeley. Where every 10 roads or so were converted to bicycle boulevards.
Oh, the humanity!
