Do people just troll local news sites to complain about bikes at every chance?

Many people seem to just troll news sites to complain.

 

For some reason, bike-positive postings are always attractive to the trolls.

We rarely read, pay attention to or respond to comment sections. It's just not effective.

I like that you all are framing this as making streets better for everyone rather than just bikers.  Definitely the way to go and avoid unnecessary bike/car antagonism.

If I were the mayor I'd tell the police that I wanted every copper to give 5 tickets a day for putzing around with cell phones while driving. AND 2 tickets a day for cyclists running red lights or stop signs.

 

That should make everyone happy.

I agree.  The "safer for everyone" approach is a big equalizer.
