No, I haven't claimed that.
Modal share of cycling in Spanish cities: 0-1%, in the Netherlands 20-30%. Let's try the dutch way eh?
Backstop-
Yeah, that's bad logic. We don't have the long history of cycling infrastructure and culture of the Netherlands. Whilst we may want to target the same modal share, we have to consider our own current history and culture and determine the best way to develop in a way that suits us. Simple mimicery of the Netherlands isn't automatically the best solution. We shouldn't want to be like them, we should want to be like us but with a comparable modal share. That's what will be more achievable and sustainable.

Why not just pick 'a' way that works. It needn't be either/or.

Explain how this means the 1.5m overtaking rule is not something we should follow?
