[sustran] Bicycles - Improving the image

[Neil D. Schuster]

not only are bicycles space efficient, they cause virtually no damage to
roadways.

one of the issues relating to motorcycle use of toll roads is whether they
should pay the same axle rate as passenger cars and whether they cause the
same amount of road damage as cars. 

of course, the other issue is how much space motorcycles take up; if tolls
are set on the use of highway space, a motorcycle takes up almost as much
road capacity as a car.
