Lots of driveways and side roads along that section with the sharrows, with poor visibility around the corners. Riding at the edge can be especially hazardous in those areas. Consider a motorist pulling out of a driveway, and having to move forward into that shoulder area to see past the walls and hedges along the side of the road. If either the motorist or the cyclist isn't paying attention, a crash is bound to happen.
