[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think I could be convinced about installing dedicated rush hour bus lanes on CT Ave.  But these bikes lanes are the transportation version of Defund the Police.  They sound great on paper, but as soon as they’re implemented it will be obvious very quickly that it was a terrible mistake.  [/quote]

Twice a day I drive along a route in Alexandria where bikes lanes were installed despite the overwhelming objections of numerous people in the area.  During the ride, I count the number of cars using the road and the number of people in the bike lanes.  I have been doing this for three years.  In over 300 trips, I have counted thousands of cars using the road and 17 bikes in the bike lanes.  At the end of each week, I email a report to the mayor.  He is too embarrassed to respond, because he knows he was played by the bike lobby.  [/quote]

That's funny. There are bike lanes that I've *never* seen anyone use. It is an appalling use of resources. [/quote]
