If you #bike in #Baltimore, you might be interested to know that Margo Bruner-Settles's anti-bike-lane billboard truck ran a red light in front of me today.
@Tevis Okay I am NOT from Baltimore but who the fudge i against BIKE LANES?
I can get people being against closing up entire streets, but to convert space to bike lanes? That usually do not mean interfering with actual traffic?
@WhyNotZoidberg A lot of folks fixate on parking, and the perception that bike lanes interfere with parking. What few protected bike lanes we have in Baltimore are parking-protected.
@Tevis@WhyNotZoidberg
That may be because many places in the US do it backwards. The parking lane should be between the road and the cycle lane. Not the other way around.
@leeloo@Tevis Over here it is even more common to widen the sidewalk and split it in a walking path and a bike path so the bike lane is up high, away from traffic altogether.
