This particular sentence really outlines how ridiculous the whole proposition/article is and makes me seriously doubt the knowledge of the writer.

Pearl Street mall is an outdoor pedestrian mall/thoroughfare. While it's wide enough to be a road it's FAR FAR from it. Yes, bicycle traffic is banned, but so is ALL vehicle traffic, rollerblades, skateboards, etc. That's like citing the fact that bikes are banned inside a private traditional mall as evidence that authority to ban them from public roadways is valid. Absurd!
