We cyclists should really find a way to pay for the facilities that the government builds for us, otherwise the motorists will really resent having to pay for our bike lanes.

One thing I didn't mention in my earlier comment is that the cyclists are often shown taking what is a substandard bike lane on roads that are either entirely free from traffic, or which have traffic moving very slowly indeed (15-20mph). In other words, there's not even any need for a bike lane on the featured roads! It's incredible to me that cyclists would go anywhere near a door zone bike lane on an empty street!

Note that every bike lane in the video was either a door zone lane, or filled with debris, or the video showed the approach to an intersection where LAB should have advised cyclists to merge left into the general traffic lane to avoid right hooks. In my view, at no point in the video should any of the cyclists have been in those bike lanes. LAB needs to be sending a clear message AGAINST the very kinds of lanes they feature in this video.

Great video. However, it seems as though the part at 0:42 where the cyclist cuts of the pedestrian with a stroller waiting to cross in the crosswalk should probably be edited out. Both motorists and cyclists need to do a much better job of yielding to pedestrians.
