>>2020778I change my opinion and agree with you. If motorvehicles 'can't get onto it' a bike lane that has enough space for passing (even more space if you consider allowing motorvehicles of the 'e-bike' type and the associated boomers onto it) then the bike lane would be safe. I guess to have that you need to either ban cars or put the cager inclusion zone underground.
That being said I have yet to see such a thing. Maybe it's my generally shitty country. Like yes, the 'bike lane' is a 40 cm wide strip painted on the side of a road next to a row of parked cars. It's often conveniently forgotten when the pavement of the road is renewed. Every now and then a bus stop replaces it. It indicates to cagies the may now pass even closer because 'on a seperate lane'. Also no cager has the mental capacity to understand how having multiple lanes works which is why they will constantly take a turn across it, be it a left (like when theres a jam and some cager stops to wave another through) or right, back out into it and what not. Sure ride on the street and you get other absolutely pointless BS but in my experience less. In my area they have now also passed a 'mandatory bike lane' law. That will help the demand for ghost bikes to stay where it is.
Sorry of OT.
