Don’t make bicyclists more visible. Make drivers stop hitting them

In New York cars routinely violate every law on parking, they break the speed limit on every block, change lanes without signaling, and block intersections.

If cars would simply follow the laws that already exist there would be many fewer deadly accidents between cars and people who die when hit.

The traffic congestion in NYC keeps the speeds down, not to mention the potholes in the road.

But a cyclist running a red light is so commonplace in NYC that they think that it's not even a ticketable offense.

That's probably also true, and doesn't contradict the statement you are parodying.

If your thought was to object to the statement you're replying to then probably it went wrong.
