I believe it was @gravelinfluencer.bsky.social who convinced me that “Share the Road” signs are read by bicyclists as “cars should not kill me” and by drivers as “bicycles should never slow me down.”

This is the eternal conundrum: I have been to the USA many times. There are many Americans I quite like! Why, when you get ~350 million of them together, do they behave like such an arsehole?
