Village Sun** Professional "activist" offers excuse for dangerous cycling

Activist Bill Di Paola known for the West Side Highway makeover and Times UP and Critical Mass bike mess making excuses the rampant lawlessness by e-bikes as similar to the mess extant 20 years ago made by self propelled bikes. A spirited exchange ensues. The comments are the most interesting. Especially Sandy from Brooklyn. Eloquent and insightful. Basically its more hubris from the Transportation Alternatives version of Mein Kampf. Make a mess. Congestion. Clamor for Congestion Pricing. Push for privatization of public space. Then while the hubris is still pungent suggest that its the fault of the city. The reckless disregard for public safety should be criminal on the part of both Trans Alt and 3 administrations that have subjected the public to abject disregard for the law and common sense, sanity, and decency. If you want a taste of what another Trump administration would be like THIS IS IT.**** https://thevillagesun.com/cycling-advocate-offers-his-spin-on-the-e-bike-dilemma
