The ridiculous thing is, these cities are not doing it out of some philanthropic idealism, it makes money! More people get into the city, more people walk from them bike passed shops etc. More journeys are made by bike, less strain on public transport, visitors to the city who do use a car can...

Do you shout at cars too?
