I would support a bike lane on the side of the road I commute down, because it's without turns for the most part. This wouldn't help with those who drift into the bike lane, but it would save me from the right hook. I'm not to worried about drifters. It makes no difference if the bike lane is there or not if they're gonna drift into me.
We have an ALDOT meeting tomorrow about the road I'm talking about [Old Madison Pike] and Ima let them know.
Here is a view of the worst part of Old Madison Pike. I call this part The Gauntlet, and the only way to ride it is as far right as possible as fast as possible.
