UK comedian James Corden zoned in on some very odd bike lane objections and based this comedian routine around them.
The city of Coronado in California has become known for its bike friendliness over the years.
But of late it appears the patience of some of its residents has worn thin.
When the local authority announced it was going to construct another 20km of cycle lanes, a group of local women decided to object.
And putting forward some pretty unusual and emotional arguments, they have (incredibly) won out.
UK comedian James Corden, who is currently hosting The Late Late Show in the US, decided to do a sketch about the controversy.

Have a look below, it's very funny.
Among the objections at a televised town hall meeting were:
- “You are covering Coronado with paint stripe pollution.”
- “The graffiti on the streets does not help our property values"
- The lanes “bring to mind a visual cacophony that if you look there long enough it will induce a dizzying type of vertigo”.
- “These black streets with these brilliant white lines everywhere... takes away from your home, from your outlook on life.”
- “It’s very similar to personally taking all three of my daughters to a tattoo parlour and having them completely body tattooed”.
