Should the government promote the use of bicycles by expanding bike lanes and bike-sharing programs?

Yes, but bicycles have to follow the same laws and restrictions and any other vehicle such as stop signs and lights

I like the idea of expanding bike lanes and creating spaces for people to cycle because it's good exercise. But this will only work in city centers where it is cost efficient to bike to work vs the suburbs it would be a waste of money because people need to drive to get anywhere in a time efficient manner

Yes, as long as the cycling infrastructure is built reasonably to where it does not cause problems to drivers and pedestrians.

It depends because a lot of citizens all over the world will walk in the bike lanes causing the bikers having to swerve out of the lanes and potentially getting hit by a car. So in my opinion I would say yes but there are a lot of situations that needs to be taken into account for.

i believe that roads in general need to be redesigned so that going places always doesn’t require a car. other countries have a nice roadmap to where everything is accessible. i also think this would allow more youth to spend time outside as going out would be a lot easier as opposed to having an adult drive you.

Yes, but it should be done on the local level. I live in an area that has bike lanes that are rarely used. Some would say this is a waste of money. Other locations have a higher need/want for it and thus should look into implementing.

In cities like mine not everything is that close so you kind of need to drive, but in big cities, it makes sense and should.
