I’m amazed at the sheer stupidity of transportation planners when it comes to bicycles… GLOBALLY

Which parts of your brains needs a good whack ???

Where does common sense & logical fall off cliffs like lemmings ?

French, English, Italian, Spanish, Chinese, Hindu or whichever nation… same problem !

Cyclist get injured and killed for a very simple reason.

THEY CANNOT SEE BEHIND THEIR BIKES AS WELL AS VEHICLES !

IN MY OPINION THE SOLUTION IS SIMPLE.

AS WITH ALL TRAFFIC ON A 2 WAY ROAD… YOU ALWAYS SEE ONCOMING VEHICLES IN THE LANE OPPOSITE YOURS.

SO… BICYCLES SHOULD BE GOING AGAINST TRAFFIC AND THEN BOTH THE DRIVER OF A VEHICLE AND THE CYCLISTS ARE BOTH RESPONSIBLE TO AVOID COLLISIONS.

YEP… IT WILL TAKE SOME GETTING USED TO AND RETRAINING BRAINWASHING SINCE THE INVENTION OF THE FORD MODEL ‘T’ !

DUH ! OMG
