"Same roads, same rules, same rights"
"Same roads, same rules, same rights"...
Is this copyrighted or trademarked? If so, by whom? Or are we free to use it anyway? I've seen it written with "rules" and "rights" switched, but the other way makes more sense, and is better copywriting. Matt O. |

If you are referring to the ever-present motor-car/cycle debate, "same rights" is wrong; as cyclists (in most parts of the world) use the road by right, whereas motorists use it by permission. And of course, "same rules" is frequently wrong as well. |

Does anyone have an answer? Matt O. |
