Bikes can be faster than cars in densely zoned areas, which is why cities have bike messengers.

I think one of the big things bike messengers get over cars is that they can park a ton faster than a car.

When I ride my bike I get the same advantage.

Another advantage is that it's a lot easier to bend and break traffic laws on a bike.
