My Fair City spent IIRC $3.35 million USD on a separated bike path on a main downtown street. No one likes using it.

-Cars park in the path
-Cars drive down it
-There's no drainage, so the path becomes an ice rink or a lake with any moisture.
-The light timing is perfectly wrong to grant cyclists too little time to cross traffic, while slowing down cars and annoying them lots.

All I can say is, welcome to the club. Human drivers are becoming too stupid to be allowed to drive.
