How to cycle like the Dutch in Amsterdam, home to more bikes than people. The Dutch learn to cycle before they can walk. This plus the fact that cyclists have the right of way on the roads in Amsterdam makes them incredibly impatient when having to share bike lanes with tourists and expats who are not used to cycling like the Dutch.

Cycling is so much easier in Amsterdam (and some other cities) than taking a car. Much faster too. Many roads are too narrow for cars and all those traffic lights. Then you need to find a parking space and pay for it (really expensive in center) and hope nobody scratched it before you come back.

"You are the most important being in the universe."
In the USA, we say this is the motto of those who drive cars which cost more than your house. In the Netherlands, it is the motto of cyclists. The Dutch are much more egalitarian. -
When I'm on my bike I just want to get to the place I'm going as fast as I can lmfao, I'm not cussing at people and all that stuff but geez I'm most reckless when I'm on my bike damn.

Again Amsterdam as representation for the rest of the country. Behaviour differs throughout the country. Of course cycling behaviour like that you see in the rest of the country, however less accepted behaviour.

Let's say the rules of the road are more guidelines more than anything.
I come to a crossing slightly before you, i have the right of way even if you come from the right. A car is slightly onto the intersection: i just swing my bike right behind the car and continue instead of waiting. I can cut a corner between cycle paths by going over a pedestrian area: i take it. The cycle light is red, but the pedestrian light is green: You can continue your way as a cyclist as well even though you're technically running a red light you won't come across any cars. And i can be faster when i go the wrong way on a cycle path for a while: sure i take that, but not for great lenghts of time because you will annoy people who come from the other direction.
And you can ride a bike on a shopping street when it's not packed with people even though that's technically illegal. Get off the bike when there are too many pedestrians though on a busy shopping day.
