> name one legitimate reason it is a good idea to get on your bike and go biking in a vehicle lane on a highway? JUST ONE?

To get from one city to another?

I've done it. Sometimes there's no other path.

( of course unlike biking without a mask (which, in this case is probably not a huge deal) travelling between cities *is* a bad thing and he shouldn't be doing it, if that's what's going on )
