That’s like saying “I’m pro-life and anti-gun control”.

Oh. Wait.

Edit: Guy confirmed that he is, indeed, pro-life and anti-gun control.

    Some of them are against bike lanes because they say it gives drivers a false sense of entitlement and cyclists a false sense of security when they’re supposed to be sharing the road.

    That doesn’t sound like this guy, though.

      I ride an odd bike, a recumbent. I have seen a few cars watching me rather than the road, which is good for me — they give me loads of space — but bad for anyone ahead of me as the drivers show no lane control for a good 50m after they pass me. Where that happened most recently is also where a driver killed a cyclist by wandering into the bike lane despite having a six metre wide lane to themselves (even the cycle lane there is three metres wide)

        That’s potentially another objection, I guess–“they’re going to run us over either way, why bother inconveniencing us with unprotected bike lanes as well?”–but I guess that feels to me like perfectionism.
