The road has three lanes in each direction so passing delay is minimal even for those motorists that aren't paying attention. "Reasonable" may be applicable, given that the traffic engineers did not do a very good job of designing that particular intersection.<br /><br />Hmm, what WOULD Judas do?Steve Ahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13650405341304401203noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2523357558654725888.post-74215202415847116532010-10-31T14:40:43.081-05:002010-10-31T14:40:43.081-05:00The first rule of commuting is to arrive at your d...The first rule of commuting is to arrive at your destination on time and in one piece. Like Khal, I don't see this in terms of vehicular vs non-vehicular cycling. Instead, it's a practical solution to a problem, and rather than ride on a 'safe' sidewalk or finding an alternate route, you've hit on one that allows you to take your desired route.Ed Whttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02661476789768156794noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2523357558654725888.post-47399587723731769042010-10-31T10:28:20.085-05:002010-10-31T10:28:20.085-05:00Seems like a reasonable, common sense thing to do....Seems like a reasonable, common sense thing to do. When a slow moving vehicle can pull over to let a platoon of other traffic by (on a mountain road, etc.) it is considerate. Saves a lot of people time and gasoline.<br /><br />The only reason you are being so defensive in explaining this, I assume, is due to the religious rather than rational nature of the "vehicular cycling" argument.
