Bicycles ARE the hazard. If your vehicle of choice isn’t able to reach and maintain the speed limit, then you are a hazard to everyone else on the road.
If you really don’t want to drive a car, buy a motorcycle.
How are they a hazard if they can’t even do damage to anyone, the cars however weigh multiple tons and would instantly kill anthing smaller than a car if hit at something above 30kmh
Bicycles are not able to maintain the speed limit, so they force traffic jams as cars wait to pass. Cyclists often don’t (or aren’t required to) obey the same laws that apply to cars, so they blow stop signs/lights and cut across lanes, forcing drivers to slam on their brakes to avoid hitting them. Bike lanes cut into valuable space for extra lanes that should be used for automobiles.
In my mind, bicycles fall into two categories: 1) Exercise equipment - Ride on a track or on private property. 2) Off-road vehicles - Go ride in the desert, the mountains, whatever you enjoy. Don’t ride on public roads and interfere with cars.
