A number of cities are planning to integrate more bike lanes in their roads and highways. Car drivers in those cities are protesting those plans. They believe that cyclists should not be allowed to ride on the roads for a number of reasons. Arguments against the plan include, for example, that tax money used to maintain the roads are only paid for by car owners. Therefore, only car owners should be able to use the roads. others argue that allowing cars and bicycles on the same road would result in a lot of accidents because cyclists do not follow the laws such as stopping at stop signs. In addition, allowing bicycles on the roads will increase traffic as they can’t go as fast as cars. Which of the following statements, if true, would most strengthen the above argument?
1 Research showing that fatalities due to car-bicycle accidents increased in cities with bike lanes.
2 Research showing that cities with bike lanes reduced their level of pollution.
3 Research showing that cities with bike lanes experienced increases in sales of bicycles.
