Nuh uh. My city painted pictures of bicycles on the asphalt in the right lane of a busy road, so now drivers know itโ€™s also for bikes and itโ€™s suuuuuper safe.

Thatโ€™s what Big Bike Lane doesnโ€™t want you to know. You donโ€™t need to build a bunch of infrastructure to separate cyclists and cars - you just need paint! Especially the new kind that wears off the road in less than a year and doesnโ€™t get repainted.

In my city, all of the pictures of bicycles on the asphalt are underneath parked cars.

Ah good, that way they wonโ€™t wear out too quickly!

I thought about making some stickers that say like โ€œIโ€™m as asshole that parks in the bike laneโ€ and slapping them on cars that were doing so, but Iโ€™d probably get caught and sent to jail for a decade.

Just routinely ride into them at high speed. What are they gonna say in court?

Sharrows are worse than no bike lanes since they provide the illusion of safety while offering absolutely no protection.
