@jessta That's just horrific.

The two way bike lane clearly doesn't work.

@MrAndrewD The design isn't great. It should be raised at the side streets so cars have to go over a hump. But there is probably also not good signage and without a proper cycling network there won't be enough bicycles here for motorists to expect them.

Two way bike lanes are great and we need more of them if we're going to normalise them.

As you can see from the rest of the video motorist do the same thing even with single way bike lanes.

@MrAndrewD @jessta the bike paths I use that cross roads, every crossing is raised, coloured, has extra "give way to bikes". About one in four drivers actually give way, the rest will run you down on the bike path, *and* they'll get angry at you if you shout, nearly get driven over, or otherwise draw attention to what they should do
