but o, the hypocrisy. We climb in cars and drive on the roads

This. I actually didn't think of it this way at all but now that you said it, yes, exactly. I actually don't own a car anymore, I do drive occasionally but when cycling, it's a bit the same because sometimes there are no other options than cycle along the cars and that's just really risky. Playing with my life. But then again I never voluntary ride among the cars so there's the little difference with amusement park rides. 😀
