I am extremely skeptical f bike lanes for all the reasons in that video. Motorists should be responsible and aware enough to drive sharing the road, and so should cyclists.

I could probably plan bike lanes in nyc better than they have it done, and i don't even live there.

Someone at the climate march on sept 21 asked me if they had bike lanes etc where i live and i was like "nah, we don't really need them, we just need safer roads and more driver education" Adding that "theres a bunch of people that ride unsafely on the crowded and obstructed sidewalks without helmets often, but they are usually kids or fair weather riders". The lady said "yea, i have no idea why people are so afraid to simply ride on a surface intended for 2, 3 and 4 wheeled vehicles".
