@nbkyrww why should they?
-
Just a thought: I wonder how it would be if the requirement for a driver's license in the U.S. was to pass a bicycle rider's course...in the middle of the city...lol.
-
@nbkyrww More than likely, over there they don't teach how to make the crash safer...they teach them not to crash in the first place, and watch out for others who do. Total biking skills...in my opinion.
-
@nbkyrww Because it is totally over kill. Imagine, dedicated bike lanes to bikes, no need ot use the same roads as cars. We have half assed infrastructure in the USA< it is sad.

Why don't they wear helmets?

Bicicle = one of the best inventions ever. These sounds like my kind of cities.

From my own experience, exercise (just built into life when you get around on foot or by person power) is more important than anything for weight management. My grandmother never touched a diet book or ate low-carb but she MOVED and she was never heavy, never. I am not either unless I stop moving.

Sydney is still a very car oriented city, however our amazing major Clover Moore is implementing changes to transform the city to a people/cycle oriented city by 2030. 10km of a planned 200km have been build and more pedestrian only section are being constructed. Unfortunately there is allot of resistance from sort-sighted politicians and the public. Mostly people are just ignorant about the benefits of a cycle friendly city. They need to see the video (if they can tolerate the Casio tone music)

@slovpete Thanks!
In many ways, America has had its heyday. Unless the USA adapts for the modern age, it'll go into decline, namely renewable energy, fewer cars, more bikes, better public transport and a rejuvenation of the centre of towns for shopping and open spaces, etc. More cycling would also help to combat the obesity epidemic sweeping the States.

We dont inherit the Earth from our ancestors--we borrow it from our children.
Please think about the environment...
