I read an article from the Discerning Cyclist titled "What is 'Vehicular Cycling'? (The Arguments For AND Against It)" depicting the arguments for and against Vehicular Cycling. First off vehicular cycling is a form/mindset of cycling where the cyclist is in the lane sharing it with the cars and acting like a vehicle on the road. This mindset makes cyclists like cars on the road they still have to obey all the same laws but instead of being in a car, they are on a bike. In the Netherlands, after spending time here the cyclist comes first in the hierarchy of transportation and travel. There is dedicated bike path or "highways" and on most streets or bike crossings, cars have to yield to cyclists.

Below is the table I present the calculations estimating the number of tax dollars set aside in dollars per person per year from the state tax on gasoline. This is roughly $0.74 per person per year. While Furth recommends in the City Cycling book to allocate at least $1.50 per person per year. Oregon does not meet this "recommendation" and thus not contributing to pushing more cycling/waslking facilities within the cities.
