> Cars disruptively and offensively aggressively hijack that infrastructure every single day
If roads were built for those cars, one can't claim they hijack it when that's what it's for.
We can argue it shouldn't have been built that way, but given that it was (in the US anyway), there's no hijacking involved in using it as designed.
The intent of the infrastructure is to move people, cars and other motorized vehicles hijacked it and excluded other users.
And to claim that cyclists are violent towards drivers is the pinnacle of absurdity. Drivers using their 2 tonne heavy machinery as a weapon, driving towards people, and then you blame the victims for tapping on the bonnet of the aggressors weapon.
