My city just put in a huge bike lane on a major thoroughfare; cars use it as a turning lane.
I was taking my kid on a bike ride a few months ago and there is a 2 way bike lake on one side, that used to be a turning lane. There was a car in the bike lane and i just stoped in front of her and said “yo this is a bike lane wtf” to her and had a stand off for a minute, until she got into the car lane.
Awesome work comrade
It’s so nice to cycle around cities that have good cycling infrastructure, particularly when it’s properly separated from car traffic. You get to see a lot very quickly, because you’re moving so much faster than walking but also not in a metal box having to watch the other metal boxes
I just wish bi directional multi use dirt roads were wider in my town. They aren’t any wider than a residenial sidewalk and I feel like I’m in a walking only path.
