Chi-ching!  And yeah, there's nothing you can do, because even if the cyclist is found 50% at fault for an accident, it just means that as the driver you pay 10k instead of 20k instead of 0. Our system's messed.
Actually, the worst cyclists are the ones who do NOT respect the rules of the road, such as running 4-way stops. I just love it when a cyclist does that, I almost run them over, then they finger me. Usually it's some dumb kid under 16 though.

This is insane. The amt of added congestion by removing one lane far exceeds the environmental benefits of cycling,

this whole idea is sooo stoopid
it rains in vancouver. who the fuck will ride their bikes in the rain. i can stop there. dumbasses (-_____-).......
and spend 30mins changing into their suits? and all the shit they have to bring to work? laptops? hardcopy files? it'll be like camping everyday, packing their suits and ties and shoes and towels and helmets and hair gel and combs and shit. gotta whore the bathroom every morning when pplz are most pissed off, and piss them off more with ur stinky, sweaty, raunchy bike riding ass. there goes ur freaking bonus cause ur a dick with a base 5 series with a fake m badge, trying to look cool by coming to work in ur dinky bike, sucking up to mother earth, pretending u care. oh, and dont even think about taking the elevator to ur office, might as well walk ur pansy ass up the 20 fucking stories using the stairs. hey, u biked to work, might as well save more precious energy consumption by not using the elevator, otherwise ppl will make fun of u at work for being the half ass little vp cocksucking shit u are
times like this Chopstick wishes he's a decepticon, fire the massive railgun hidden in egypt, blow up the stupid sun, and annihilate all the fucking degenerate fuckshits running the shithurricane gongshows on this pathetic little rock humans call earth
"fuck u gm, because ur so fucked up and so "environmentally conscious", i have to transform into this little green shit. i was 30ft tall b4, u knowz. now im a 4 cylinder ecotec autobot. give me faulty wiring and kill me now so in my next life i can be the devastator =.="
