“...they need to make sure the area is adequate for it and have their vehicles ‘taxed’ since they want to share the road.”
Amen! Getting to my house requires driving 6 miles on a narrow road. It has a wide dirt shoulder, but of course people who dress like French transvestites don’t want that...they want the pavement. Add in lots of dips and some turns, and you can be stuck behind Mr “I’ve got rights” for quite a way.
Technically, I have the right to ride my horse down the road too, but I don’t. On the shoulder, but not on the road. It wouldn’t occur to me to ride her down the center of the road and expect cars to wait for a safe place to pass my horse. But I wear T-shirts and jeans, so maybe I’m not as special as a French transvestite...
‘people who dress like French transvestites’
One of the better lines on FR lately. I feel compelled to borrow it from you.
