I have one of each and love both.
I'm in a rural area and mostly ride country roads that receive minimum maintenance. There is little traffic. Since my bike doesn't do any damage to roads I don't feel that I should have to pay a tax BUT, if I rode city or state built bike paths I would feel like it was a fair request. I would love to have safe bike lanes and paths to ride and would not mind paying a yearly fee to do so.
I also agree that some cyclists are just plain weird and some are very rude. My local group of riders are pretty good but there are always a few that hold themselves in high esteem and look down their noses at non-riders and novice riders. They are also the ones that feel like they are above the rules of the road that all operators of vehicles are required to observe. They give all of us a bad name. I go out of my way to give vehicles an opportunity to pass me even to the point of pulling off the road if I'm going around blind curves, etc.
Of course, that works the other way too. There are a lot of rude dangerous automobile drivers out there that don't realize that cyclists have a right to be on the road.
Do you use lane markings, road signage, and light-controlled intersections? Then you should have to pay a tax like every other road user. I ride a motorcycle, which has less road pressure than many road bicycles and therefore causes even less damage to roads. Yet I must pay the same tax as a car.
Sorry, no free loaders.
Would you care to explain the bicyclist behavior in these videos?
