Roads Are Meant For Cars, Not Bicycles
30 October 2003 - 10:00am
A reader complains about having to share roads with bicycles and says that bikes cause congestion.
Even though roads were first used by people on foot, horses, and bicycles long before automobiles, a letter to the editor complains that bicycles don't belong on the streets. "the road is meant for cars.

Bicycles are creating added congestion where it's not needed."
