Some worry that New York City’s crackdown on unsafe cyclists leaves them facing greater consequences than drivers, even though cars cause more fatalities.

Gee, a 2 ton vehicle wouldn’t hit them if they weren’t darting across crosswalks without showing any intention they are about to cross or even without looking, running red lights (not the cross walk one, the main intersection red light!) and just having no fucking regard for anything else in traffic. They behave like entire world has to pay attention to them and they can give zero fucks about anyone else. Yes, large majority of cyclists are like that.
It pisses me off because I drive a car and I also ride a bicycle. Just because you’re the weaker one in traffic doesn’t mean sole responsibility for your safety is on others. That’s why I’m so pissed about it.
