Stupidest bike lane followup

Andy Bowers of SlateV talks about the response to his stupidest bike lane video. It's pretty funny.

  1. Imagine if Main Street or Mary Peter's favorite highway was designed this way. You think, just maybe, it would be headline news?
    Bottom line: Cyclists get no respect.

  4. Thanks for posting this. Strangely enough, the very first example in the video is right by my house here in LA, and I ride on all 275 feet of it every day on my way back home. Unfortunately, this whole city is full of half-assed "bike lanes" just like it. Guess it's time to move back to the Bay Area...
