We do have separate bike lanes on the bypass here, too, but some kinds of bikers simply don't use them. Those wannabe-tour-de-france-bikers always drive on the road on weekends. All normal bike drivers use the bike lane, because it is actually better off than the road. They were built at the same time, but on that roads there is a lot of heavy truck traffic between the quarry and the motorway. Looks like most of them don't do this for real training, but to hang out their spandex-clad butts to anyone who would like to pass.
On the "Diagonal Highway" near 63rd where he was hit?
Edit: yeah there wasn't shit https://maps.app.goo.gl/oUXtHqR3kTFUGDFN9?g_st=ic
Just some awful thin bike lane which he was probably in (text said Toyota drifted into shoulder)
I never said "here" was "there". I was just bringing up the point that a lot of bikers won't even use an existing and good (better than the road!) bike lane.
