Los Angeles Times transportation reporter Laura J. Nelson talks with LADOT bicycle coordinator Nate Baird, director of advanced mobility research at Art Center College of Design Geoff Wardle, and Move LA executive director Denny Zane about whether the bicycle will ever become Angelenos' primary method of transportation. Even if that doesn't happen, though, the panelists agreed that it's time for a truce among bicyclists and drivers in Southern California. It's time, too, they said, to secure funding, build new infrastructure, and remake our city's culture to include more modes of transit.
