I agree with the others. Bicycles cannot be ridden safely with motor traffic. That is painfully and sadly clear when you compare our deaths and injuries per mile ridden with places like The Netherlands, Denmark, Finland, Sweden, Germany and others.

Bicycle riders should NEVER ride in the door zone (driver side) of parked cars. They should be on a properly designed cycle track on the pedestrian side of the parked cars.
