As a car driver, I am dismayed at the cost of cutting up our roadways for these stupid bike lanes that are more of a traffic hazard than anything. I pay huge gas taxes to pay for paved roads, and you pay NOTHING. You don’t even have to license your bike. It’ about time they brought that back and the money earned paid at least for the paint for these stupid things.

Sometimes I take up the entire lane just to upset drivers. I just laugh and laugh.
Lol. Someone must be stuck in traffic and pissed off at how the pedestrians are getting to their destinations faster then they are.
You are exactly right. Bikers are so fucking ignorant.
tl;dr: reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
And don’t even get me started on those pedestrians walking on those sidewalks for free!
Seems to me you CHOOSE to waste your money on driving…
You are making yourself look stupid due to your ignorance in regard to taxation and road funding. Gas taxes aren’t used for paving, they go into general revenues, from which all aspects of government spend are sourced. Further, the cost of reliance on a car for transportation costs the taxpayer far more than any tax collected through gasoline sales. This is not even considering the cost of the environmental damage wrought by burning fossil fuels.
On the flip side, bike owners pay plenty of income, property and sales tax, far more than they would otherwise if they weren’t subsidizing motor vehicle usage.
Next time do some reading before spouting off.
Entitled much?
