A thread on the hypocrisy of car cultures (feel free to add your own, it's fun!):
A person driving to the gym is a legitimate road user, but a person cycling to work is not.

Cars killing 150 pedestrians each year is due to pedestrian distraction, but bicycles killing 1 pedestrian every 5 years is due to reckless cycling.

Slowing cars to 30 km/h will impact on productivity, but bicycles travelling at 30 km/h are speeding irresponsibly.

A roads budget of $20 billion is inaction, but a cycling budget of $0.05 billion is extravagance.

A car squeezing past a bicycle is inconvenienced, but a person cycling past a car at traffic lights is a selfish jerk.

The colour of your car is your choice (despite dark cars being less safe), but people who walk or cycle should wear bright clothing.

Driving a car without a helmet is perfectly safe, but a a person riding a bicycle without a helmet has a death-wish.

Millions of free car parking spaces is inadequate, but bicycle lanes are a waste of space.

In inactive and unhealthy person should get free medical treatment, but an active and healthy person is a freeloader who should pay registration.

Driving children to school in a massive, lethal and polluting car is responsible behaviour, but cycling to school with children is irresponsible.

Motor vehicles need to be parked on every street to meet transport needs, but share bicycles are street clutter.

Thanks for jumping on-board folks!
