GeMeervaart
Het ambtelijke fenomeen waarbij een burger opgetogen plaatsneemt aan een participatietafel, gretig post-its volschrijft met viltstift en het gevoel krijgt mee te beslissen over de toekomst van de buurt, terwijl de ambtelijke nota, de bouwtekening en de winnende aannemer feitelijk al drie jaar geleden in beton zijn gegoten.
"Ze vroegen vanavond serieus naar onze visie op het nieuwe fietspad, we kregen zelfs gele stickertjes!"
"Trap er nou niet in, buurman. Je wordt gewoon weer keihard geMeervaart."
"Trap er nou niet in, buurman. Je wordt gewoon weer keihard geMeervaart."

car-ogance law
Car-ogance law states that whenever cyclists raise valid questions about their safety or discomforts that within three responses car owners will try to bend the topic/discussion about the own responsibility and unsafe behavior of that cyclist.
Example 1:
"Yesterday I got hospitalized because I got doored by a car-owner that opened his door"
"Those damn cyclists should wear a helmet. It is your own fault!"
"You're showing car-ogance and should keep your attention on the traffic instead of opening the car door without looking"
Example 2:
"I don't feel safe on the roads of Amsterdam sharing the road with SUV's."
"Cyclists always run a red light. You should follow the rules."
"You are showing car-ogance and should be aware that other people are also in traffic without a car."
