Today while driving my work truck, I passed a cyclist [1] that was riding less than ½ foot from the white line on a two-lane road. *I felt like stopping and yelling "take the lane" at her.

Ed Dolan, as anyone who has practiced vehicular cycling methods will know, is wrong. *Furthermore, Mr. Dolan is promoting cyclist inferiority - motorist superiority. All Mr. Dolan is doing is attempting to prevent you from being killed on the road by a motorist. Those who advocate taking the lane are worse than criminals. It is one sure way of getting hit by a motor vehicle sooner or later. Or an angry confrontation with a driver who feels entitled to the road, where you got the most to lose. |
