I was looking for a good way to put my disagreement with Serge's statement into a words. This is it. As opposed to Serge's statement:

"All bike lanes are based on the concept that cyclists should be segregated from vehicular traffic, at least on the roadways that have bike lanes."

the flip side of the coin is:

"Bike lanes are based on the concept that cyclists can be integrated into moterized vehicular traffic based on using identical ROW rules and not relying on shared lanes."
