I did it in 1 post rather than make 3
You can't answer any of the points so you resort to ad hominem, well done.Sam Vimes' Boots Theory of Socioeconomic Unfairness:
People are rich because they spend less money. A poor man buys $10 boots that last a season or two before he's walking in wet shoes and has to buy another pair. A rich man buys $50 boots that are made better and give him 10 years of dry feet. The poor man has spent $100 over those 10 years and still has wet feet.

I just cant be bothered. Honestly.
But hey, lets go with you win, well done, have a cookie:beer:
It's not a matter of winning
You have yet to explain why you believe a bike that jumps a red light is equally as bad as a car, in light of conclusive proof that cars cause the vast majority of injury and death following red light jumping.
All you have done since is try and move the goalposts or insult people to avoid the fact you don't have a leg to stand on.
p.s. Lycra wicks sweat and helps make cycling more pleasant. It's the same principle as why you run a 100m race in spiked shoes not walking boots or why you don't wear a cotton t-shirt to run a marathonSam Vimes' Boots Theory of Socioeconomic Unfairness:

Why bother? who is insulting anyone here? To put it simply, on your bike. (through a red light no doubt)It's not a matter of winning

You, clearly, as you continually avoid answering the questions asked of you in the face of solid evidence you are wrong and continue to resort to ad hominem responses.
Even if I did ride through lights, which I don't, any more than I do in my car, I would be safe in the knowledge I wasn't likely to kill or injure anyone, unlike if I was in my car.Sam Vimes' Boots Theory of Socioeconomic Unfairness:

Well I'm not wrong, I've already given you solid evidence that supports my view that focusing on bikes not cars for safety reasons is demonstrably wrong and proves you wrong so hey. You're welcome of course to ignore the facts in this thread as you have done so far because you haven't been able to counter them.
As you seem to like the last word, thought I'd leave this one with you to comment on amused me as it was the same day you posted.

Oh and just in case you were unaware of what you post, here's your ad hominem responses:
no accountability, no oversight. And then you get the Lycra warriors with their go pros and plastic policeman badges.
Anyway, don't want to upset the two wheeled commandos anymore, so you just carry on doing what you do:money:does anyone smell that? smells like, angry Lycra.
