It’s true, people don’t think about the social cost of driving. Instead they mostly scream at the cyclists like they are the scum of the earth.
I would love to see an estimate of the mortality cost of driving vs cycling (taking into account pollution, crashes, health benefits of exercise).

“One mile on a bike is a $.42 economic gain to society, one mile driving is a $.20 loss.”
“Which means that Copenhagen, a city of 1.2 million people, saves $357 million a year on health costs because something like 80% of its population commutes by bike.” #CityMakingMath
Some costs are savings.
