Reply to comment by EmeraldFalcon89 in Put some signs to discourage heavy gas mopeds on the bridges and protected bike lanes by CroustiBat

The gas mopeds blow across the bridge bike lanes at 25-30mph. They can most certainly keep up with vehicle traffic going across the bridge assuming the bridge vehicles are keeping to the legal speed limit of the city so let's not be dramatic and say the cars on the bridge are going twice as fast - half the time the bridge traffic is crawling.

cool fantasy - the bridge speed limits are 35, nobody follows the speed limit and they drive as fast as they can until they hit traffic which is only crawling at certain times in certain directions and often only half the bridge.

Tell me you're not a driver without telling me you're not a driver.

Wow you caught me, the rare person in NYC who doesn't drive a car. I am just tired of gas mopeds on the bridge bike lanes.
