Totally weird ...

Totally weird ...
The lane closest to the bottom of the photo is designated as a Right Turn Only ( used to be Right Turn or Straight ahead )..

The Center lane is for cyclists ... I wouldn't ride on that ..

Lane where the car is is designated as Left Turn or Straight ahead ..

Yet, if a cyclist is going Straight ahead ..They Must Dodge cars !

Who re-striped the pavement did a good job -

But it is stupid .. not to even mention not safe
NCDOT [ North Carolina Dept of Transportation is the guilty party ] ..

When this was brought up at a City Council Meeting ..

Our Mayor was told we have to wait for NCDOT to fix it ..

His reply, "If they don't get out here and fix it - I'll do it !"

[not unuusal for him -- have seen him on riding mower when the grass on the exit or entrance ramps to the Interstate gets too high - he doesn't wait for NCDOT -- gets out there and cuts it himself]


Won't be surprised if I drive over that way and he has paint brush in his hand - he doesn't like to wait for the 'powers that be "

Congratulations. That's why I bike on the sidewalk. It's easier to avoid people walking than people driving.

That's an interesting way of reducing cyclists, ;-))

Ein Fahrradfahrer der so eine Radspur benutzt, sollte darauf achten, dass er gut zu erkennen ist. Beispielsweise durch das Überstreifen solcher handelsüblichen gelben Warnwesten. Hier ein positives Musterbeispiel:
