I'd like to also say that to the extent that roads are designed for automobiles, that's a failing of the designer not taking into account all of the users of the road.
It's true that some roads are horrendously badly designed for bicycles. Heck, there are bike lanes that are horrible and may be more dangerous to cyclists than if they weren't there at all. But it's not the cyclist's fault that the facilities were badly designed. Blame the engineers or the people who hired them and weren't willing to pay the money to make sure that all road users were able to use the road that they're paying for.
