    This about the dumbest post I’ve seen today. How dare these people exercise safety so that they can install the fucking safety barriers that you want for the bike lanes. Holy shit, take a step back and get a sense of reality.

      The point is that the teeny little barriers they’re installing which are supposedly adequate for cyclists’ safety are far less protection than the massive buffer they have as protection while installing them.

      It’s not about blaming the people doing the installation, it’s about highlighting the government’s hypocrisy when it comes to cyclist safety.

        I get the point. It’s just a shitty point. We can agree that the bike lane is not sufficiently safe, and you claim that those barriers are inadequate, but comparing the safety of bikers in the bike lane vs workers literally working in the car lane, and somehow correlating them shutting down that lane as hypocrisy is a shit argument. Apples and oranges.
