On this particular segment of the road, the only entrance onto the road from the right is the one in the picture.

Why they chose to not stripe it all the way with bike lanes (and we'll leave that debate for another thread), or think they need to shuffle bike traffic off the road is a mystery to me.

This is a video going west on the road, the signs in the picture are on the eastbound lanes, you can see them off to the left toward the end of the clip. The white car at 3:40 is coming out of the road shown in the picture. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-siBksnW4aA
