Whilst I agree the car is used to much in America, (and to a less extent in
the UK; continental Europe's got it about right), I feel that this is due to
government failings regarding Public Transport in both the UK and US. I also
feel if you're having to rely on the UK press (specifically the Guardian or
Independant, not that the others are much better), you're scraping the
barrel.

A shame, considering you seem to want more cycle facilities and better
protection for cyclists (from the groups you posted to, and your name),
which I happen to agree with. The kind of logic you display here doesn't
help your cause at all IMO.
