narrower lanes are safer in general too in spite of what traffic engineers think. Slows people down. (People, not cars, we gotta stop planning for cars...)

I could have told them that in way less than 13 years.

Totally unscientific, but personal story:
Years ago, in Amsterdam, a car was parked on a bike lane that was only divided by a painted line from the car lane and tram tracks. I (cycling) swerved to avoid it. I was careful, but I still got stuck in the tram tracks. I fell, was hit by another car and spent the evening in the ER. Luckily I had no fatal injuries. The arrogant car owner who thought he could just park on the cycle lane went unpunished.

I strongly believe that intentional collisions and vehicular assault are more common than anyone wants to believe. Therefore, making such separation imperative.

acutally implement something like this. I remember how annoying it was to see a bunch of bikers on the road with my mom and it pissed us off so much. theres a sidewalk for a reason. Was this close to running them over. Something like this would be so good for society

still think have a big spike in the middle of the steering wheel will be the safest for everyone and also will have the side effect of reducing pollution

A bunch of flexiposts makes the lane separated?

and I believe more car users were saved than any other group. But I may be wrong on that!
