At the same time NYC and Toronto, we are removing protected bike lanes. In North America the acceptable amount of lives per year to sacrifice for a little convenience for drivers is above zero, and apparently rising.

Cyclists switch between pedestrian and car rules at will. I see them blow stop signs and lights constantly.

In their defense, neither set of rules offers them much in the way of safety and protection.
