We’re sorry Mr. Redden had a bad experience with our product. I’m sure some sort of action will be taken right away to remedy the problem.


Thank you for your attention.
My guess is the implementation is as much or more responsible than the product. I can't see any useful purpose for this product on a road that expects to see bicycle traffic. I went to the location and took some more pictures. The more I think about it the more upset I get. This implementation is a crime. I guess a few signs about sharing the road pays lip service while the same public officials work to make a dangerous situation worse.
Guess it's open season on bicyclist's in Los Angeles.
