    the negative and outsized reaction of car culture to change

    1. Denial - “We will never be Amsterdam”
    2. Anger - comes in many forms, from demonization of cyclists as reckless to TV hosts yelling at a mayor <-- this story is here
    3. Bargaining - resort to last-ditch efforts, e.g. lawsuits
    4. Depression - self explanatory
    5. Acceptance - people appear out of nowhere and start biking to school, work, wherever
