This is such a laughably bad take it doesn't warrant a real response.
Why? It's analogous to your "cyclists need to be regulated" take. If cyclists/walkers want to see a bike lane/sidewalk installed that isn't currently there, let them fund it themselves through a bike/walker tax because gas taxes are only for roads

Are you retarded?
One poster said it's crazy to have bikes on the road with cars when the numbers show that it's more crazy to have cars on the road with trucks.

If we're equating cyclists to walkers now, you need to be out of the road. Can't have it both ways there. Are we sharing the road with you or are we not?

That was me. Guess they finally read my letter.

Read back on that chain of comments. I'm not going to waste time catching you up on the scenario he posted.

Do you stop at stop signs?
Depending on the state, stop signs are treated as yield signs for cyclists and stoplights are treated as stop signs.

Protected bike lanes aren't part of the road, are they? You just said shoulders aren't because they aren't a travel lane. Why would a bike lane be?

I've lost nothing. You have provided zero laws that allow cyclists on highways or interstates. You've at best showed a law that allows travel adjacent.

They are actually.

Because it's designed that way. I get yall aren't engineers, but this is basic stuff.

I like riding my bike as much as the next, but i was going down my street and two guys on bikes were coming towards me and instead of both of them getting over to their side they tried to just split me. I was singling to the one guy to just move over to the other side of the street and ill stay in my lane he just looked at me like a fricking tool and waved. You frickers need to follow the traffic rules too.

Excellent, then the taxes I pay already cover installing bike lanes since they're part of the road.

So taxes are never introduced to pay for certain things based on the end users?

Well that just makes your takes in this thread more disappointing.

That link won't load for me. Maybe just quote whatever is relevant.

Well dammit. Let me try another.

No one said they never were. But I already pay taxes for roads. When they repave/realign a road to add in a needed turn lane, for example, we don't have a "people who will be using this turn lane" tax. Same way we wouldn't have a bike lane tax. It's infrastructure that falls under the purview of whoever is maintaining that road, be that state or local entities.
Not only that, there's a pretty good argument that a protected bike lane would reduce congestion by getting cyclists out of the travel lane that vehicles use. Why don't YOU pay a convenience tax since you'll have less cyclist related slowdowns?
