It's true in Minneapolis too. If there's a bike lane you're expected to use it. But there's is a big caveat. If there's debris in the bike lane or some other reason that would make it unsafe to ride there, you can ride in the street.
I don't know if being of the opinion that bike lanes aren't safe in general is enough of a reason but having been hit in one I might be able to make my case if it came before a judge
