Imagine if Main Street or Mary Peter's favorite highway was designed this way. You think, just maybe, it would be headline news?
Bottom line: Cyclists get no respect.

Thanks for posting this. Strangely enough, the very first example in the video is right by my house here in LA, and I ride on all 275 feet of it every day on my way back home. Unfortunately, this whole city is full of half-assed "bike lanes" just like it. Guess it's time to move back to the Bay Area...
