Oh sorry. I didn't think that's what you were getting at. I agree at least to an extent. When biking, I only ever go on the sidewalk if I'm getting off my bike to cross at a light or something.

But yes, many bike lanes are not safe, and the amount of people who either don't know, or don't care about the proper etiquette of bikers in those lanes is frankly terrifying. Not to mention road rage when you're on a bike and someone is in a vehicle.

Obviously there is much more thought that has to go into new planning of bike lanes and such.

(Sorry, my other reply may have been somewhat confrontational, wasn't my intention).
