New Mexico bike lane - will cyclists use it?

[Anonymous]

I have been using them all the time since they went in, and yes, I often see many other riders, going both ways.

If you are out of shape and can’t handle it, take a bus.

The cyclist is entitled BY LAW to ride their bike on Mass Ave at 12 MPH. If you don't like it, pass them safely or use a different road.

Let’s be honest and pragmatic: there IS no way to “safely” pass a cyclist riding in the travel lane of two lane road. The only options a driver has either puts oncoming traffic in danger, or the cyclist in danger. Two lane roads are not meant for passing. So just take a deep breath, calm yourself, and stay behind the bike. You’ll survive being a few minutes late to whatever pointless thing you were driving to

Says the cyclist who disobeys every single traffic law. Sorry, sweetie. I'm blowing by you in my SUV.

Is it fun bragging about your dangerous and illegal driving, anonymously on the internet?

It seems like it would be pretty easy to pass a law saying that cyclists need to use a bike path or lane where available. I would think it’s common sense but since it isn’t, it should be a law. Nation wide. For their safety and everyone else’s safety too.
