I live and work down in the South now, so I can't say that it would really impact me, but I would be pretty choked if my commute was going to increase by 20% so that some hipsters could feel safer riding their retro single-speed around downtown.

Well, $hit.. we should just get rid of red lights and cross walks to improve your commute time too. Screw those hipsters who want to cross the street safely and add 60 additional seconds to your drive
