I’d guess that until riding a bike for transportation is “unusual” those who do will be treated as “different” and less important

Cycling for transportation in the US IS considered "unusual," and transportation cyclists are often treated with OMG and "different" tags... and so many people tend to value cars and drivers as "more important..." so much so that an automobile is often considered a sign of particular "social standing."
