A video game where cyclists install cycle lanes, bike hangars, and LTNs as they ride around? Sounds great, until you realise it was made by anti-LTN activists. Just don’t get hit by a driver, or the game will tell you that you’re “bad at cycling” cycling
in the Hanover and Tarner area of the city, to parody the “absurd idea”.
Chris says the game, based on a similar arcade-themed satire of Southern Rail, “does get the message across and highlights the absurdity of what’s going on. It’s a great idea and some people will find it funny.”Ah, of course – now all that stuff in the instructions about the “collateral damage” of LTNs, “extending the misery”, and “knowingly and intentionally making residents’ lives painful” makes sense now. Well, it doesn’t, but you know what I mean.
But… when a motorist strikes you, knocking you from your bike, the car also explodes into pieces, and you’re pointedly told: “You have been caught being bad at cycling”.Brighton & Hove City Council told the Argus they are aware of the game, and criticised it for its “inflammatory and disappointing language”.
“This would make our streets safer and our air cleaner for residents, and discourage unnecessary car journeys.
