[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I bike a lot and find protected bike lanes more dangerous than taking the lane. Drivers just don’t see cyclists in bike lanes, which makes every intersection a massive risk of a right hook. The two-way bike lanes also become death traps when an irresponsible cyclist rides too fast and out of control from the other direction. No thanks. [/quote] Conn Ave is proposed to be one lane in each direction. If drivers have issues seeing cyclists in bike lanes, then perhaps they shouldn't be operating 2000+ lb vehicles.[/quote] Unfortunately, the worse a driver is the larger the vehicle they prefer. That's because the larger vehicle makes [b]them[/b] feel safer. [/quote]
