If more people did that here in the US, there'd be no reason for ridiculous deep water oil drilling.

aww. i was waiting for something interesting to happen..
maybe a crash or someone getting his ass kicked ![]()
Now that's setting the example! Public Transport and Bikes outnumber the 1 or 2 mopeds and cars which are probably seriously frowned upon way 2 go!
This will only happen before rushour when students have to go to their school. They will almost always take public transport because it's free for students.
@7, @13: the few normal cars you see are taxis, regular traffic is not allowed at all at that particular crossing.

All the bikes look like something from the '60's with the little platform over the rear wheel. Brings back memories from when I was a kid.
I did not see a single collision during that whole vid.....impressive.

Helmets ridiculous. Most of the time ur only riding between 6 and 13mph (10 and 20km/h).
Funny to see this, being part of this happening regularly. I was hoping to find myself as well, but no cigar. I have seen people filming here, though.
#25 What's so amazing about bendy buses? A little more to the right and they could have shot double-bendy buses, i was like
when I first saw them when I first came to Utrecht.
#1, lol... No matter what are the bicycle crash rates, but they aren't that fatal as other accidents... and the safe side of bicycle is that lol, alcoholics, even if have to, cannot ride the bicycle and use it... !beeecaaaaauuussseee.... thhhheeeeyyy aarrreeee ssllllooooooooowwwwwwww ppppeeeoooooppplleeeee..! lol

bicycle-crashes happen,, but not as often as people think,
and i can know, i work in a bicycle store in the Netherlands
There's a lot of great things to be said for getting around on a bike. Too bad I live 26 miles from work and bring my 3 kids to work with me during the summer for childcare.

Instead of just sitting it down somewhere
would of made his recording easier

#34 maybe they are using a Stand dumb ass.
And i wonder how many of them die each year.
Here's a recent one of Mark Wagenbuur's bicycle rush hour video's. See if you can spot the foreigner in this one:
