[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Now that we are getting some decent pedestrian and bicycle infrastructure in DC, drivers still act as if the entire road is there. Commuting in this morning I had to go around and into traffic b/c two cars were blocking the bike lane. One had pulled into it to go around other traffic, cutting me off, and got oussecwgej I tapped her car and pointed to the bike lane sign. The other was an Uber driver waiting for a fare - they’re the worst. I really hope DC steps enforcement of drivers in cars entering the bike lanes. [/quote]

Honestly this is why we need protected (with concrete curbs or bollards) bike lanes. [b]Paint is not protection and many drivers just have zero regard for other road users[/b] and while it would be nice to rely on enforcement or people actually adhering to signs that jsut isn’t the way the world works.

In DC everything off-limits to cars has to be physically protected with concrete or bollards, or they will go to there. We just don't enforce enough.[/quote]
