I hear a lot of complaining about not being enough bike lanes. I get that. we need more. But I absolutely do not understand why cyclists that do have a bike lane still choose to ride right on the white line that separates their lane from mine. You have a good 3-4 feet all to your self... use it! Oh... and stop at traffic lights and stop signs like everyone else.


Because many of those bike lanes are 90% door zone or have other hazards, leaving almost on top of the white line the safest part of the lane.


Not the ones I'm talking about. I see many more bike lanes that have no road side hazards and bikers still ride on the white line.
