    We ask ourselves: what does the local police chief or the councilor of the bicycle circulation area know? The existing regulations are more than sufficient; it would simply be a matter of incorporating the higher rank LSV standards. How do you think of launching such a monstrosity without the participation of cycling groups. Can you explain what the painted cycle lanes are for on some roads, with red stripes, if it is not possible to circulate on them, without a clear risk of being run over? pass. It served to squander more than € 300.000 under the pretext of not losing the grant. LONG LIVE THE WASTE AND THE LACK OF COMMON SENSE. Of course if they do not rectify we will prepare mobilizations. Best regards to everyone in general and to cyclists in particular,
