This seems to not be based on safety at all and is probably Mapps and Williams spending money PBOT doesn't have because of complaints by business owners that are not based on data.

Exactly the kind of stupid decisions I expected Mapps to make when Teddy appointed him.

This won't lead to more deaths and road rage. /s Every cyclist who is hit by a car afterward is his fault.

Even the ones that run red lights, stop signs, and can't be bothered to learn the rules of the road?

Yes, let’s murder people for breaking rules….and remove safety factors for them that keep things between cars and bikes separate to begin with.

"It's not my fault, it's everyone else's fault when I ignore the rules of the road!"

How about taking some fucking personal responsibility.

lol, I don’t ride a bike on the roads mostly because of people like you who can’t control their emotions enough to not do some crazy shit. Why don’t you move out to like Pendleton or some shit and you won’t have to deal with all your unwanteds.
