Study Finds Cyclists Are Better People Than Drivers
jalopnik.com
The results show drivers are less interested in the common good than cyclists.

I’ve always argued this wasn’t the case and that motoring is a worse transport mode because of the associated externalities, not because of anything inherent to the users.

But you can’t argue with the scienceTM!

    Like, why should we assume that someone who is (e.g.) honest is also generous?

    We should not.

    Source: am honest, but not particularly generous.

      Agreed. I’m generous but not honest.

      I may work overtime, but I’m definitely taking things from the storeroom on steal from work day.

      According to the study I read, we in the developed world generally do, but in the less industrialised world, people generally don’t. Which was itself really interesting!
