It's funny, when you look at the specifics of the "overwhelming evidence," it doesn't show what it's purported to show. That's why you see peolple like shbikes and bike pedestrian groups citing each other.

I'm willling to talk about stiped lanes on high speed, high volume roadways (with few intersections). The main problem is when cities stripe lanes on low-speed or high-intersection roads.
