Sure, most Google employees drive to work. Just like every other employer in the bay area. Nothing new here. However I can confirm that some googlers do bike and/or CalTrain to work as I see them on my daily commute. To Richard - You may want to consider removing the "s" word from your petition. Perhaps "Make bicycling more inviting and comfortable for millions of bicyclists around the world" would do. Too often when cyclists complain about safety authorities just take the cheapest way to resolve the problem : ban the victim. Regardless, you can have my name on the petition. Thanks for pushing for this "bike there" capability. To roblingl – way to stereotype and smear a group of thousands of people !

How many of the Google tech slaves ride a private luxury bus to work instead of riding Muni and Caltrain. But of course, I was forgetting, Googlers are too highly paid and too special to ride with the rest of us. Let us not forget, in all the hype and "do no evil" rhetoric, that Google is a publicly traded company. "They are in it for the money!"
