Besides, there won't be any malls left to walk in.

Without a sense of just how many cyclists still take the risk of riding on New Jersey roads as a base, it's hard to say whether a one-person drop is much of an improvement. After all, cyclists like me simply ride less now than years ago, no longer willing to put our lives in the hands of others.

Whenever I'm out running in my neighborhood and need to make my way on a pedestrian crosswalk, the local motorists and even the local cops won't stop to let me walk. I guess this is so normalized that someone obeying the law gets beaten?
