Even when cyclists have their own lanes, they need to cross the streetcar tracks in order to (1) make turns and (2) avoid obstacles (e.g. cars suddenly pulling out). If they don't plan and execute the track crossing at a perpendicular enough angle, the wheel gets trapped and the rider usually wipes out.
