    To be fair, trucks are regarded as egomobiles in the municipal areas of California if they’re all shiny and are obviously not used for heavy work.

    In the 1990s and aughts, bicyclists had a bad reputation in San Francisco for messengers being inconsiderate and for bikers being a voting bloc. I don’t know if they are since mass gentrification.

    Out in the redder suburbs, all the vehicles are trucks and the women are blond unless they’re behind the Jamba counter. And those shiny trucks frequently have truck-nuts. In those towns, they joke about running bikers off road, and might actually do it if they’re drunk enough.
