@Sir_Osis_of_Liver @mbonsma you seem to be confusing ”making aspirational statements on the Internet” with “the way people actually behave in real life situations”. I walk and cycle very defensively. But I firmly believe that I should not *have to*, which I think is what Madeleine was trying to get at as well.
@Tunaloo @mbonsma
It is entirely possible that I'm mistaken.
I gave up my last car back in May just prior to the lease expiring. I had it 4 years and only had 5k kms on it.
I'm in a central location and walk almost everywhere I need to go. My motorcycle is used only to get out of the city on weekends.
Vehicle traffic is not my biggest safety concern. I've had tweekers rush me a couple of times just in this past year, and I look like an extra from Sons of Anarchy.
