This is not a great take. You're generalising based on some half-formed observations. Of course US cyclists are not either "raging hippies or aggressive couriers". Next time someone riding a bike is in intensive care after being knocked down by a motorist I hope you have more sympathy than your comment would suggest.

I have not, and will not condone drivers that cause accidents because "ugh cyclists".

I commute in london by cycle. I am also a driver. I expect both driver and cyclist to respect the rules and each other. I do not jump red lights, because that is not what one does.

Over the last 5 years cycling has become much safer and less dangerous. The traffic is slower, and there is more segregation in central london. In the suburbs its not as rosy.

I have not, and did not seek to justify the viewpoint expressed in the article, only to add my observations, which were clearly marked as personal opinions.
