> Wow, maybe you should report all of the cyclists in this thread to flag@whitehouse.gov since you can’t be tolerant and respectful of the differing thoughts and action of your fellow citizens.

Aw, sure I can. I can be as tolerant and respectful of my fellow citizens as you like, as soon as my fellow bike-riding free-riding citizens pay their own way and obey the laws of the road just like everybody else.

Until they do “pay-and-obey” they are free-loading scoff-laws whose opinions of how the roads ought to operate are interesting but not overly relevant.

First, 90% of Americans of driving age own a car and pay gas tax.

Do you really think that a group of people with an average per-person income of over $90k who are riding a vehicle that does no damage to the road are a horrible succubus on the average counties road budget?
