"Cyclists get nothing and pedestrians very few of the New York dollars
allocated to traffic safety over the coming years. About 20 times as much
money is spent per driving fatality as per pedestrian fatality."
"An autoped is the most coolest, hip, prehistoric thing there is on this
planet! Simply said it is a scooter without an engine!
You can use the autoped as a daily means of transport...to go to work or
school. It's a very cool, modern replacement of the bike and it can be much
easier to handle in streetlife...Het Steppen in Nederland!"
"In China, cyclists often cannot cross intersections because there is
automobile cross-trafic and no traffic lights. Slowly, more and more cyclists
amass waiting to cross the road, and when there is a sufficient number -- a
critical mass -- they are able to all move together with the force of their
numbers to make cross traffic yield while they cross the road."
"You can view and download the New York Cycling Maps, the New York City
Bicycle Master Plan, as well as more information about the BND (Bicycle
Network Development) program. Also included in this site is the New York City
Greenway Plan, outlining the cityÕs vision of a 350-mile Greenway System. "
