This was a Critical Mass event, which is why the bicyclists are taking up all of the street as a way to reclaim the streets and protest the lack of safety for riders under usual conditions. It’s not legal, but protests are never useful if they’re fully legal now, are they.

    what the hell they do if there was emergency that ambulance needed access

    So the neat thing about ambulances, and other emergency vehicles, is they have flashing lights AND sierns to let people know they are there.

        I agree, crowds of protesters are far more observant than drivers. I’ve seen ambulances stuck in new York traffic before

          This guy has a picture of it happening once, in another country, with people stationary on foot, it has to be true. Unless there is a picture floating around out there of people not moving… That would blow this whole thing up.

          God, anecdotal evidence is such brain rot.

            Nobody thinks this proves anything. If you think that is what is happening, tend to your own brain rot.

            This is evidence supporting an argument, not evidence proving an argument. Feel free to provide contrary evidence.
