So we are in agreement.I am also anti-reckless driving and I have expressed that many times in the articles I used to write for Sheepsheadbites. But the anti-car people would always dismiss those comments and then distort what I would say about Vision Zero and deny I was pro-bus (because I do not agree with how SBS is moving forward) ant I was pro-car which I am not. I am pro transit but also recognize the importance of cars and driver rights. Anti-car people (which you apparently are not) beluieve drivers gave no rights and should never drive within the city limits. They want to force their values on everyone else. As far as the mirrors comment, I am glad you added the "if necessary" because that is the key. In his case, even if a cyclist had started moving to the right of me after the pedestrians finished crossing, there still would not have been any conflict since we would both be traveling in the same direction. It was on,y necessary to look right to be sure the last person crossed who wanted to cross. And I did observe the New Year and Happy belated New Year to you to. |
