That's really cool. Though it does seem to remove almost 50% of the benefits listed in this entry, but those seem to be focused on fuel-consuming vehicles rather than bikes.

Not having to waste your momentum is really, really nice on a bike. I always resent stop signs at the bottom of a hill.
If it gets more people to bike instead of drive, it still has those benefits.
You're absolutely right. I didn't think about it like that, thanks.
Making biking preferable and easier and faster is a great way to reduce fuel consumption by getting people out of cars and onto bikes. The best way to reduce fuel consumption is to make driving undesirable.
