Why do some car lovers oppose bike infrastructure, when more bikes would mean fewer cars on the road?

Like you sit in traffic for an hour each day to work. Wouldn’t you want to halve that by having more other people use bicycles instead?

    I’m sorry we exported that ideology. I love utes. My next vehicle may very well be a tall American version of a ute to replace my compact pickup. Maybe I won’t need it by then if the home projects reduce in size. I wish more cars had trailer hitches here but, just like our daily driving “needs”, there’s this belief that only trucks can pull trailers. Even a 1.5m x 3m sofa hauler needs a F150
