Living in Stockholm I’m so envious of the way the Danes are truly committed to cycle traffic instead of the window-dressing we have here.

This type of practical measure is unthinkable here, where a cyclist often has to stop at traffic lights and press a button to request a green signal - even when car-traffic is at a standstill.

It all leads to more friction and dangerous risk-taking - where cyclists end-up ignoring lights instead - endangering both themselves, pedestrians and even other cyclists.
