Comment on Anon rides a bike
Nighed@sffa.community 1 month agoMost bike lanes are worse than riding on a road unfortunately. Especially for confidant cyclists.
I equally hate those that break/bend the rules of the road, whether on bikes or in vehicles.

Exactly. If those lanes exist, they’re right next to parking, and I’m much more worried about getting doored than hit from behind by a car. Nobody looks at their mirrors before getting out of the car…
If there’s a good bike lane, I’ll take it every time.

I find the ones on roundabouts near me insulting, instead of being on the road and having right of way, you now have to sprint across two lanes of traffic without any right of way. - more dangerous!
Most of the rest are just wide pavements. Technically segregated, but you have to give way on every side road (when your not manoeuvrering around entire families) - technically safer, but not nice to use.
The rest are just short and spit you back out onto the road without and protection or markings.
London has some good ones though.
