Call it whatever you want, cars overpay road taxes and trucks underpay.

It's funny that you actually know NOTHING about what vehicles I own and use and how much taxes I pay. As I indicated before, automatic transmissions should be banned along with those who buy and use them.

"It's funny that you actually know NOTHING about what vehicles I own and use and how much taxes I pay."

Actually, I don't really care if you own "United Van Lines".

Your answer is the typical answer I get from bicyclers; they think if they pay taxes on their car, it makes it ok to used the roads to bicycle for free.

Meanwhile, motorcyclists have to buy tags, taxes and insurance...and they cause very little damage to the roads.

You are not paying for that bicycle to USE USE the road.

It's not "funny" that I know "nothing" aobut your other vehicles, it's normal...how would I? That does not negate the fact that your bicycle is NOT paying to use the roads. Your bicycling friends then want to protest when a city bans you from the sidewalks...which are for PEDESTRIANS.

When you buy a license plate, pay taxes, get insurance and a license for your bicycle, you'll have an argument...until then, you just have your spandex panties.
