I encourage you to get out on a bike & experience it first hand.
As a white, western male, it allows me to experience bigotry, prejudice & irrational hatred usually saved for minorities, not available to me in my normal every day privileged life.
I asked him to move his car, he came storming over with clenched fists to tell me he was going to "knock me into next week"

There are new rules about to be pushed through, after a backroom deal between Labor and liberal, if there is one thing they can agree on, it's ensuring one of them has all the power. This isn't great news for you punts who would like to see more competition in our policial system

The Australien Government and the Opposition have made an ad about electoral reforms, and it’s surprisingly honest and informative (and they're hoping you don't hear about it) #auspol
Hi car left the road?
But how did he die?

More lies from a senator.
Why are these people not held to account?
Renewables are the cheapest form of energy.
"His car collided with a prime mover"

Why do you always blame the inanimate object & remove the accountability of drivers?
A 63-year-old man has died after his car collided with a prime mover carrying two trailers.

Northumberland council perpetuate victim blaming with faked images.
Calling all pedestrians & cyclists.
During autumn and winter months motorists take longer to notice you. Take care near or when crossing roads or try to wear something bright or reflective to help motorists see you.

It's amazing to me that peoples lives lose importance to road authorities when they get on a bike.
These collisions were totally preventable, & the post fix was one presented to the road authorities months earlier. They just chose not to implement it.

The media car-centric bias is amazing.
Boy ON PATH killed by a driver.
@westaustralian describe it as an "e-bike crash".
No mention of a car at all.
You are conflating anti helmet compulsion, with "anti helmet"

Did you know, your sex is determined by your face!
Why are you asking me to demonstrate that people have any difficulty know the sex of everyone else around to them to a very high degree of accuracy?
By looking at someone's face alone we can determine sex to a high degree of accuracy.
Why are you pretending this is not the result of hundreds of millions of years of evolution?
Why are you so clueless about any of this topic that you ware wasting your life advocating for removing rights from women?

Apologies for my language but what was this driver thinking, undertaking and then turning into me.

Pedestrians and cyclists are not the people who need lectures about how to behave in public.
The antisocial behavior that causes so much destruction comes from people operating motor vehicles.

Oxford seems to be a hotspot for potential Olympic champions.
Also, speed limits only apply to motor vehicles.
