Bicycling produces more CO2 than driving, says Wash. GOP lawmaker

(Seattle Bike Blog) Representative Ed Orcutt (R â Kalama) does not think bicycling is environmentally friendly because the activity causes cyclists to have âan increased heart rate and respiration.â This is according to comments he made in an email to a constituent who questioned the wisdom of a new bike tax the legislature is considering as part of a large transportation package. We spoke with Rep. Orcutt to confirm the emailâs authenticity and to get further clarification.

âYou would be giving off more CO2 if you are riding a bike than driving in a car,â he said. However, he said he had not âdone any analysisâ of the difference in CO2 from a person on a bike compared to the engine of a car (others have).



Answer
If Representative Ed Orcutt thinks that cycling produces more CO2 than driving, he's a grade A moron.

Answer
Hello Tariq

The answer is no.
Your cousin needs a G-licensed driver with 4+ years of experience. Unfortunately, you do not qualify for being able to teach him until you have had four years of G-experience.

please see this link for the VISUAL guide of what steps the process of getting your Ontario drivers license consists of: http://find-a-driving-school.ca/ontario-driving-licence-infographic/

Here's the official driver's handbook for ON: http://find-a-driving-school.ca/drivers-handbooks/ontario-g1-handbook-study-guide-online/

Hope this helps!
