There's no need to repeat all this. You clearly know by now you are an outlier and your history adds nothing to the topic of mixed car and bike traffic.

Your humblebrag about your lived experience DOES NOT MEAN that choeger's "about 30km/h" is indeed anywhere near the right speed for the large majority of cyclists.

Even in places like Amsterdam and Copenhagen where it's flat, a lot of people do daily bike commutes, and they own no car.

That depends on ones point of view I guess. Besides that I don't want to add. I'd favour substracting cars, because they are like the plague, a nuisance, and loud if going fast enough, no matter if ICE or BEV.

Furthermore I'm thinking of anybody thinking of 30kph as absurdly fast for a city bike as an outlier, even if they are the majority.

That is not my world, LOL :-)
