Unless you know the cyclist personally, it's foolish to assume they asked for those death lanes. Ever since they put those "protected" bike lanes on Reseda Blvd a few years ago, I have witness more car/bike accidents and near misses that I have in over a decade before. Drivers entering driveways can't see behind the parked cars and end up right hooking cyclists. Drivers exiting driveways are creeping out too far before they look and end up with a cyclist flying over their hood. Cyclists encounter trash and debris on those narrow lanes, and the curbs prevent them from riding around it. I certainly never asked for those poorly designed lanes in my town.
