I'm all for this. It would certainly encourage more people to ride and it would get my mom to shut up about the dangers of riding my bike.

I wish every city would be like this...it would mean more trees more parking...
Put trees up in the buffer with little crosswalks and trashcans.
I don't even ride a bike!

FOUND on MAILING LIST: How does it get swept?, cleared of snow? It treats bicycles as non-vehicles and encourages the more dangerous
separated behavior over the integrated behavior. Reduced visibility at the most dangerous points, intersections (60%+ of all
motor vehicle/bicycle crashes.) Making safe left turns with traffic almost impossible. Under current State law, local jurisdictions could "require" bikes use them,even if the rider feels safe riding with traffic. (reply?)

No, he's not "totally wrong", he's actually completely right.

the idea of FORCING cyclists to ride in a poorly designed bike lane (ie one that forces them too close to parked cars so they can get the Door Prize) just because the bike lane is there is extremely evil, wrongheaded, ignorant, stupid, and dangerous.

Opening car doors are not a problem if you are taking proper lane position (yes, take the lane) at least one metre from parked cars. Be visible, be predictable, take a course, learn how to ride in traffic.
If you've taken the lane you also have some maneurverability.
The problem with the seperated lane scheme is that it only LOOKS safe. It is not actually any safer than Effective Cycling (ie riding correctly in traffic.)

dude, totally wrong.
So why dont we destroy the pedestrian lanes too, making it at the same level of the street?

When you do this, you get the pedestrians busting your balls in the middle of your lane immediately!!!! |
