I like to bike and think cars are a net negative to our society. I still get frustrated when a biker is legally using the lane.
What is wrong with me.
Nothing wrong with being frustrated at a slow moving vehicle ahead of you.
But you should be more frustrated that the cyclist doesn't have a dedicated and protected lane where they can go their own speed, and instead they're forced to contend with 2 ton SUVs driven by (typically) the most high-strung Karens with murderous intent.
I agree. I think we should take over multi-lane thoroughfares in towns and give a dedicated bike lane with green space for shade.
Plus if I know driving is gonna be a nightmare I will bike note or take public transit.
Never going to happen though
Christine is a fantastical horror novel that depicts a car whose innate bloodlust is not hindered by the need of a driver.
