If they're going to make people ride bikes and scooters in traffic, then it should at LEAST be legal to do the Snow Crash thing where you use a hook-shot-style harpoon to catch free rides from cars.

Yep. The combination of moving to New York City and reading "death and life of great American cities" really pushed me into being anti car culture. That and looking back at growing up in the suburbs where I couldn't do anything without a car. Age like 10-17 sucked. I was so jealous of the kids that lived in the city and could go out and do things.
