And you are correct, compaired to the days without cars, Beijing and Shanghai are disasters.
I often ride in the left hand lane of the bike lane. I move over for buses, but slow all cars down before moving out of their road. My aim is to make it slower for them to use the bike lane. I am not the only one doing this, other bike riders do it as well, and some of them give me the thumbs up for joining them

Fight the cagers!!!!
