In the Netherlands the bicyclists have many rights above the automobiles. This results in millions of people who ride their bikes as their main source of transportation. Through the countryside and the city.
This also results in almost no cases of obesity, much lower oil consumption, longer lives, and more socialbility.
Is there a problem with the above lifestyle? or do we still need to push the bikes off the road so the “nervous” drivers of automobiles can have more space?

I see you have a lot of pain for the person that passed away in the fire and that is commendable.
But you must realize that it is not the fault of “the establishment, or The City, or The property owner, etc. ” It was a terrible accident that probably was unpreventable even with a smoke detector.
There was a reason this person felll asleep so quickly and deeply while cooking. I don't think a alarm would have helped and if it would have he should have installed one himself.
I live in a condo that burned down two times over the years. We have central alarms and I installed my own alarms also.
Everyone knows what a fire detector is and everyone makes their own choice to put one in or not.
Please don't blame others for your own actions. Even if the Law says it should be there and there isn't a alarm do you sit there and wait for it to arrive? Or do you do something about it yourself??

Over the years I have read a few articles in the car magazines of Car and Driver and Road and Track where they compared the Octane levels of Gas relative to how your auto functions.
Every time they did the test they came to this conclusion:
You can use the cheaper gas (lower Octane) with generally no problems. Many of the engines have computers that can adjust to different octanes and run perfectly well.
The exceptions are the very high performance cars such as the Corvette and Ferrari etc that do need high octane fuel.
I have had many cars over the years. Currently I have a 1999 Ford F150 and a 2006 5 BMW and 2007 3 BMW and a 2007 X3. All run on the lowest Octane and all run great. My truck has 119,000.00 miles as of last week.
I am NOT a authority on this, I am just providing my 2 cents. I suggest you try it yourself and find out if the lower octane works for you. It works fine for me.

Did you notice this person stopped posting when Karsen Timothy Johnson was arrested?
I hope my comment doesn't bring him back, but I find it interesting of the timing.

Hi Scooter.
I'm not comparing the costs of gasoline in each country.
I am comparing the bicycle situation. The Netherlands has always been a bicycle friendly country at all gas prices. They are also in much better condition than the typical American (including me)
Do we have to wait for the gas price to go so high before bike lanes are built?? There already is a lane on this road and they voted to get rid of it. Wrong Vote I say.
