Bad spot for bike lanes
Dear Editor:
RE: Bike lanes great, July 29.
Elise Perrault suggests that those opposing bike lanes “need to look outside themselves and remove the self-important blinders”, but immediately after says “the bike lanes are benefiting me, my family, and my future children”.
Who is self important?
As for why people who do not intend to use the bike lanes have a say? Simple - we intend to use our cars and therefore are going to be negatively impacted by bike lanes on a busy highway/street.
Bikes are fine as a recreational activity but not as a mode of transportation.
