Government: “Everyone should take up cycling to stay healthy and reduce emissions”

Also government: “You will cycle in the gutter. We will not implement any cycle lanes with divides to protect you; instead, you’ll get some road markings that drivers ignore and occasionally disappear, usually at the section of road that’s most dangerous”

I’ve taken up cycling as a hobby recently, but there’s no way in hell I’m risking my life on a commute when drivers are so reckless, and the government doesn’t take action to protect cyclists.
