Ok, so recently I read a comment on this article:http://www.huffingtonpost.ca/brent-toderian/bike-lanes-car-commutin.... Ok, so this guy comments that cyclist should have a license to ride and take a required class in order to receive the license. What do you think? Here is his comment:

A license should be required to operate a bicycle in Cities. This license should require a written test (too many bicyclists don't know the laws). Also, license plates should be required for bicycles.

If you want to kill cycling then tax it.   That's what this attempt is, plain and simple.

How about a $5-10/gallon gas tax instead?   $20?  $50?  $100?  Going once, going twice...

I totally agree. This guy ticked me off.

Ha! No! I was reading the article but really wanted to see some of the views from other readings and thought that commenter's view was interested because quite a few agreed with him.

What Daniel is trying to say is that many of us have learned to shield ourselves from news site comments sections because they're typically so horrible...  it's a tough call because ignoring them and not participating means the balance of opinion will be tipped against you by that much more, and by participating you usually reward a news entity with additional traffic for posting an ill-intended sensationalistic piece.
